The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) launched the Rashtriya Avishkar Abhiyan on 09.07.2015. Late Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam (former President of India) presided over the function. The thrust of the Abhiyan is to provide support and a platform for schools to make Science, Mathematics and Technology exciting for children and encourage them to develop a natural curiosity interest and love towards learning Science and Mathematics, literally to “ignite their minds”.

One of the key highlights of the Abhiyan is the ‘Mentoring’ of schools and children through ‘Mentoring Institutions’ like IITs, NITs, Central Institutions, IISERs and Central State Universities and Colleges. Under the Abhiyan, the MHRD is also collaborating with Google in its ‘Code to Learn’ Contest where school students will be encouraged to develop Code using innovative software. Similarly, the Ministry is partnering with Intel for developing innovative technological capacities in girl students in Government schools.

In the first three years of the Abhiyan, it is expected that 25% of all Government schools will be covered by the ‘Mentoring Institutions’ through various activities and innovative strategies in partnership with the Department of Higher Education.

The Ministry invites ideas and suggestions from people on how the Abhiyan may creatively involve individuals to join the movement and to work directly work with school and school children to "ignite their minds".

faizan khan_87: I don't think a ban on talent migration is a good thing. Bans of any kind are not a good idea. Innovation does not happen when chained. Incentives to stay back are what we need. A good understanding of Intellectual property and its commercialisation is another important aspect.

We need to change our education system first. We need to focus on the practicality of our knowledge or how can we implement our knowledge from the pages of book to the practical thing. Teachers should encourage students for exhibitions and should take them to various scientific seminars. Every student should be taken seriously and their problems should be considered as important as their result.

The present education system is not equipping the students to face the real challenges efficiently at work space. With Book knowledge but Without any quality the highest marks are secured by many - only to prove their inability. To make use of their knowledge, entire system of education has to be changed, each student should be trained on Sports/ Self Defence/Enterpreneurship etc according to personal capacity and interest, with the mandatory help of Psychologist in each stream before admission.

I can say can we have one place at least at every districts where inventors can go and showcase their invention easily without any clerck system or least paper work. So lower level person can also share their knowledge. Include business houses in this so they can get easily the developed product and person can get money. This will help country in innovation. The education system should also change like more practical than theoretical classes.

Namaste Smt.Smriti Zubin Irani Firstly, hearty congratulations to you for completing the SWACHH VIDYALAYA TARGET of constructing toilets in schools. My suggestion for Rashtriya Avishkar Abhiyan is that we should have an ALL INDIA INNOVATION DAY COMPETITION each year for Engineering students. This will give them a stage to present their innovative projects and will surely fill them with positive energy.I would suggest 15th October, birth date of Late. Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam, for this contest.

If we want to invent a new technology in any field , then we will focus some simple points not very complex. these are : Ban on talent migration, provide all types of financial and political aid to those persons who invent or work on a new technique.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Motivate each and every individual by rewarding him some way (amount/ gift/ points/ meeting with eminent personality/ subsidy/ etc) so as to give any one innovative suggestion/ innovative idea/ innovative product/ etc
