Wow, the Wikimedia community in India is putting on a tremendous number of events! http://wiki.wikimedia.in/Events/2011 Congratulations!
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Program/Outreach_Programs is a very useful resource for people organizing Wikimedia events -- thank you, Nitika! Also, if you would specifically like a technical component to your workshop, where people learn to work on MediaWiki and related Wikimedia technology, you should see the resource page that Naveen started:
http://wiki.wikimedia.in/MediaWiki_Workshop
I'm helping build more tutorial material, suitable for use at a workshop or similar event. You can see the existing ones here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Tutorials
* How to use the MediaWiki API * How to write a user script or gadget * How to use and work on our internationalisation/localisation tools * How to build the Wikipedia Android app * How to write a simple MediaWiki extension * How to hack MediaWiki itself (very long!)
If you have questions or requests, please feel free to leave them on my talk page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User_talk:Sumanah or reply, preferably on-list. Thanks.
