MURAL DESIGN CONTEST FOR Bharat Renewable Summit and Expo 2026

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) in collaboration with MyGov invite artists, designers and students from across India to create a mural that visually celebrates the country's renewable energy journey, to be showcased at the Bharat Renewable Energy Summit & Expo 2026, being held at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, from 2nd to 5th November 2026.

The Summit will bring together the 9th Session of the International Solar Alliance Assembly and the 4th International Conference on Green Hydrogen under one platform, drawing policymakers, industry leaders and innovators from across the globe. The winning mural will form a permanent visual backdrop of this landmark event, telling India's clean energy story to an international audience. The mural should be inspired by India’s vision of becoming a Viksit Bharat by 2047, depicting a futuristic and sustainable nation powered by renewable energy. It should vividly portray the theme of “Green India 2047”, showcasing innovation, clean energy, environmental stewardship, and inclusive growth.
