Dhanbad (Jharkhand):Dipesh Gaurav, a BTech student from Putki Balihari in Dhanbad district, better known as the coal capital of the country, has transformed the Balakot Air Strike and the brave antics of Captain Abhinandan into a video game, with the help of his 15-member team.
This has become a subject of discussion across the country. All students who are creators of this game are residents of Jharkhand.
Dipesh Gaurav, a BTech student who heads the video game-creating team, told ETV India that he was studying in Bhubaneswar. However, due to the lockdown, he had to return home. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave the countrymen a new slogan of ‘Vocal for Local’. The PM also appealed to the youth to make video games dedicated to the Indian culture and army. On the PM's appeal, he contacted 15 other BTech students living in different areas of the state and then started working on his project. There were obstacles along the way but they overcame those by seeking help and advice from experts in India and abroad.
Finally, they succeeded in making the video game. Claim to be the first video game created by the youth of Jharkhand, Gaurav says that his video game is the first video game made by any Jharkhandi youth. He named it ‘Strike and Encounter Formation by Abhinandan’. However, the story of Abhinandan has been changed slightly in the video game. In this, Captain Abhinandan does not come under the control of the Pakistani Army, but enters the enemy camp, annihilates them and returns with Indian documents.
