AAROH 2026
A full-day student hackathon for ideas that deserve to become real.
About AAROH
Where builders get their first real shot.
AAROH is a Delhi NCR student hackathon that turns a single day into a proof of concept. No prior experience needed — just a real problem, a real user, and the drive to ship something testable.
Start with a problem worth solving. Build a prototype worth testing. Leave with feedback, recognition, and your next step already in view.

Challenge Tracks
Choose a problem
worth climbing for.
Start with a real person, a real need and evidence you can test. Pick a track or bring a wildcard problem that matters to you.
One day. Three decisive moves.
The event is structured to turn a loose thought into something testable, explainable and ready for its next step.
Make the idea visible and testable.
Prototype quickly, meet mentors and change the work when evidence demands it.
Show the path, not just the pitch.
Demonstrate what works, what you learned and what should happen next.
