It was Sunday afternoon on 2nd March, 2014. While most of us would be relaxing at home, there was this bunch of people throwing away their hands and legs in the air to gain attention of people. Why were they doing so? What was their intent?

This group of people from Mindfire Solutions, performed a Flash mob on the theme of Road Safety to make people aware about traffic rules to avoid accidents. These guys and gals were dancing to the tune of numerous hit Hindi Bollywood tracks but, their objective was to increase public awareness on road safety. The group displayed a lot of banners and placards related to traffic signals and conveyed a strong message to visitors at the mall. They also in a subtle way managed to promote a quizzing event during the course of the act. They call it as “DDM IT Quiz”.
DDM IT Quiz was the idea of an ex-employee at Mindfire Solutions named Debasish Das. The title “DDM” stands for “Debasish Das Memorial”. It was his vision to organize a quizzing event of such kind for technical and management students across India. But, unfortunately he lost his life in a fatal road accident before he could see his dream turn into reality. This mega event is a tribute to Late Debasish Das and is organized by Mindfire Solutions annually. The Flash mob was an effort by Mindfire Solutions people to communicate with general public about safe driving and saving life.
DDM IT Quiz 2014 is the 4th edition which is to be held on 9th of March, 2014 at Hotel Pal Heights, Bhubaneswar. There are a lot of cash prizes to win for participants and some surprise gifts for audiences. Registration for this event is open and free. For details log on to http://www.ddmitquiz.com/
