Designed by Deepali Designs, the Pavilion featured interactive kiosks, a virtual mine tour, fossil excavation, gesture-based games, and a recycling drive by JNARDDC. Key organisations like NALCO, HCL, GSI, and Hindalco showcased innovations, while SHG products supported by DMFs and CSR were also featured. The Pavilion blended education, engagement, and impact—capturing the journey from resources to nation-building.
