Kriyeta 5.0 is a nationwide stage that instils a culture of innovation and motivates youth to develop a problem-solving mindset in a competitive energy environment that facilitates rapid development. Create, innovate, learn, and discover in a time-constrained coding event that gives the nation's brightest minds a chance to showcase their skills and try their hand at solving problems often faced by the masses.

This year, we are introducing a one-of-a-kind track: The Agentic Premier League (PPL). While you tackle critical national problems, we’re bringing the high-energy excitement of an IPL watch party into the dev arena. Using Gemini and "Vibe Coding" techniques, teams will build, iterate, and ship AI-powered solutions in real-time.

Other Details:

• Date: April 17th - 19th, 2026 (36-Hour Hackathon)

• Location: Acropolis Institute of Technology and Research - AITR, Indore

• Platform: As this is a coding opportunity, you can use any platform for coding on your laptop within the premises, such as VSCode, Sublime, GitHub, etc.

The fee for 1st round is 250 Rs only and teams selected for the further round have to pay 750 Rs within 3 days of selection, else they will be replaced by waiting list members.

Phase 1: Perception & Goal Decomposition (Day 1)

• Input Processing: Check-in and Team Synchronization.

• The Toss (System Prompting): Official kick-off and Problem Statement analysis. Define your "Agent’s" core mission.

• Powerplay (Architecture Planning): Rapid ideation using Gemini. Decomposing complex problems into executable sub-tasks.

Phase 2: The Reasoning Loop & Tool Use (Day 1 Night – Day 2)

• Middle Overs (Vibe Coding): Live Match Screening. Teams leverage Gemini to generate logic, integrate APIs, and build the "Agent's" brain.

• Autonomous Iteration: Over-night build session. Refining the "Reasoning Loop" to ensure solutions are robust and scalable.

• Strategic Timeout (Human-in-the-loop): Mentorship round. Expert "Human" intervention to provide feedback and course-correct the Agent's path.

Phase 3: Integration & Knowledge Retrieval (Day 2 Night)

• The Slog Overs (RAG & Tooling): Connecting your AI to real-world data (Internet/IoT/Blockchain). Moving from static code to dynamic agentic behavior.

• Stress Testing: Finalizing the "Trust Stack." Ensuring the solution meets the security and sustainability constraints of the chosen domain.

Phase 4: Execution & Final Output (Day 3)

• Death Overs (UI/UX Optimization): Final UI polish and code freeze. Preparing the Agent for its "Real-World" deployment.

• Post-Match Presentation: The Demo. Showcase your Agentic workflow to the jury.

• Final Validation: Award Ceremony and winner selection based on Innovation, Execution, and Gemini utilization.

Rules:

• Participants must bring their own systems for the hackathon. The organising team will only provide internet connectivity. It is the responsibility of each team to ensure they have the necessary hardware and software tools to participate effectively.

• Each team should choose a designated colour to represent their identity. All team members are required to wear the chosen colour during the event for easy identification.

• Throughout the entire duration of the event, a minimum of 50 per cent of the team members must be present at the designated arena. Failure to meet this requirement may result in disqualification

• If the team fails to qualify for the first round, no refund will be provided.

• Each team must consist of 4 to 6 members with a compulsion of 1 female Leader, ensuring a collaborative environment.

• Participants are required to remain on the premises for the entire duration of the 36-hour hackathon. Leaving the premises during the event is strictly prohibited.

• Any participant found engaging in unethical practices, including but not limited to cheating, plagiarism, or unauthorised use of resources, will lead to the disqualification of the entire team. Upholding integrity and ethical conduct is paramount in maintaining a fair and competitive environment.

• No separate rooms will be provided to teams; a common lodging facility will be available.

• To & Fro conveyance to the institute has to be borne by the team.

• Team Introduction, Problem Statement, Proposed Solution, Benefit to Society, Future Scope, Reference (this should be the content of the PPT, and only the proposed solution can go to a maximum of 3 slides, the rest 1 slide each)

• No refund of registration fees will be provided if the teams are disqualified after Round 1 i.e PPT Submission

Note:

Participants are allowed to use vibe coding, frameworks, and creative approaches, except for the Anti-Vibe Coding constraints specified in the problem statement document.

These rules and regulations are in place to ensure a fair, inclusive, and professional hackathon experience for all participants. Violation of any of these rules may result in penalties or disqualification, as determined by the organizing committee.
