Master Mukund Choudhary and Master Jay Puri Goswami of Krishna Public School, Dunda, Raipur emerged as winners in the tough, brain-teasing national finals of RBIQ 2014 held in Mumbai today. Master K V Siddharth and Master Preetham Upadhya of Lourdes Central School, Mangalore were the runners up.

RBIQ is the annual all-India Inter-School Quiz launched by the Reserve Bank of India in 2012. It is one more important effort of the Reserve Bank towards spreading awareness about financial matters, especially among children.

RBIQ this year was held in 62 different locations across India for students in Classes 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th. More than 10,000 students from 5,000 schools participated in the RBIQ. The number was significantly higher than last year when from 42 centres and 3,000 schools, 6,000 students had participated. Shri Giri 'Pickbrain' Balasubramaniam was the quizmaster and Doordarshan was the media partner for 2014.

Dr. Raghuram Rajan, Governor, Reserve Bank of India presided over the finals and gave away the prizes to the winners of RBIQ 2014. While giving away the prizes to the winners, Dr. Rajan said he was amazed at the knowledge that the young students had today. Information, he added, was available at the click of a mouse and pointed out that “It is how you stitch the pieces together that gives you the winning edge.” Governor congratulated the winners saying he was thoroughly impressed about how much they knew. "We have been at the Reserve Bank for a while now. But I must say we did not know many of the answers," Dr. Rajan confessed.

A must watch for all, especially students, Doordarshan National Network will telecast each of the Zonal Finals and the National Finals of RBIQ 2014 beginning November 29, 2014. The one-hour episode will be telecast every Saturday from 10.00 am to 11.00 am. The finals will be telecast at the same time on December 25, 2014. There will also be repeat telecast of all the episodes on Doordarshan’s Sahyadri satellite channel.
