Signing in saves it for your whole team — everyone on your invite link sees the same two entries. Anything you shortlisted while signed out comes with you.
Decomposed from what the description asks for. Nothing added.
Integration Middleware
Create a middleware layer that supports API based exchange and provides reusable connectors for different systems.
Identity Management
Implement single sign on and federated identity methods for user authentication.
Data Sharing Engine
Build master-data management and consent-based data sharing mechanisms with data-quality checks.
Workflow Orchestrator
Develop configurable workflow orchestration and unified application tracking for users.
Monitoring Dashboard
Provide audit logs, role-based access, exception handling, and monitoring dashboards for officials.
Both columns are read off the brief's own wording. Nothing here is inferred from the ministry's name.
The jury will check whether your middleware can actually handle secure, standards-based interoperability and provide reusable connectors for different systems without replacing them. They will test the single sign-on feature, consent-based data sharing, and whether the monitoring dashboard correctly displays audit logs and service-level compliance.
A jury can still ask about these. Decide them deliberately rather than by accident.
Generated from the brief's own wording and the competition's published rules — never from a guess about what this ministry prefers.
Which specific legacy systems or database types must be supported?
The brief never answers this, so a panel will. Whatever you decide, say it the same way twice.
What specific data standards or formats are required?
The brief never answers this, so a panel will. Whatever you decide, say it the same way twice.
What consent mechanism or privacy framework must be followed?
The brief never answers this, so a panel will. Whatever you decide, say it the same way twice.
Has any part of this been shown at a previous event, hackathon or college project?
The guidelines are explicit: your solution must not have appeared in any previous event or programme, of any sort. A recycled project is what a team under time pressure reaches for.
What the organisers attached, and what the brief assumes you can get.
Same organisation, same year. Reading two of theirs tells you more about what they care about than reading one.
Pick what you are about to do and copy the prompt. It carries the organisers' own wording, the constraints they never spell out, and an instruction not to invent requirements they never set.
Who has this problem, what already exists, and what you would have to find out.
The brief asks for integration middleware. How would you build that?
Decoded from SIH26129 itself — Create a middleware layer that supports API based exchange and provides reusable connectors for different systems. The brief asks for it by name.

Where does your data come from — a published source, one you collect, or one you generate?
No dataset is attached to this problem statement, so sourcing it is part of the work and nobody told you that.
Why not use what already exists? Name the closest thing to this that is already running.
A team that has not named the alternative themselves is answering this for the first time in the room.
Which single thing will you demonstrate end to end, start to finish, with nothing skipped?
Ours, not a rule: a narrow thing that fully works survives questioning better than a broad thing that half works. If nobody on the team can name it, that is the finding.
Show me this working: the jury will check whether your middleware can actually handle secure, standards-based interoperability and provide reusable connectors for different systems without replacing them.
