Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday invited people to take part in an online quiz on the initiatives his government has taken during the last two years.

"An interesting governance quiz? Let's see how many you get it right. quiz.mygov.in," Modi tweeted.

The web-link "https://quiz.mygov.in/" provided in his tweet opens a site that says people will get to know more about government programmes through the quiz.

"So how well do you know about the Government of India's initiatives in the past two years to improve the governance scenario? Are you ready to take a quiz on this subject?," said the main page of the website.

"MyGov challenges you to come and test your knowledge. And if you don't know the answers, take the quiz anyhow to know about the various programmes, maybe a lucky guess or two will make you a winner? Either way, you will get to know about what your government has been doing for you."

The final answers to the questions will be published once the on-line quiz concludes, the website said.

It also mentioned a "grand prize" for the winners.

"A certificate signed by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself, and an opportunity to meet him in person," the website said.
