The Karnataka Quiz Association (or KQA) was founded in 1983 by Wing Commander G.R.Mulky and other quizzing enthusiasts. The KQA is a non-profit association devoted to popularizing the mindsport among students and the general public in Bangalore and beyond. Contests are held regularly in the following categories: Middle School, High School, Junior College, College, and Open-to-all. In addition, special quizzes in the areas of Literature, Entertainment and Business are held every year.
The KQA holds events in English and Kannada.
Apart from holding contests, the KQA also conducts workshops in quizzing for school students and provides quizmasters for events held by other organisations.
The KQA has an informal membership policy. People interested in quizzing sign up to receive a free email newsletter about forthcoming contests. The newsletter goes out to about a thousand people at present.
KQA quizzes normally happen once every month at the Daly Memorial Hall, a charming British-era building on Nrupatunga Road.
