About Us

Prakriti Club, under the Technical Board of Student Gymkhana, IIT Guwahati, stands as the 2nd oldest club of the institute. We exist at the intersection of technology and environment โ€” creating solutions that are as intelligent as they are sustainable. From Aquaponics (featured in The Times of India) to AI-driven biodiversity projects, we are redefining what a student-led environmental club can achieve.
