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".

Im a post-graduate, of my experince. The present education system is not that much useful during the jobs. The books were not teaching us on how to tackle to the new advancements and how to be an enterpreneur. Entire system has to be changed, each student should be trained on Sports, Self Defence, Enterpreneurship etc. Only indians to higher studies, but the USA people are not even gradutes but still there are ahead of us. Look into USA education system

यह एक महत्वपूर्ण कदम है. पौराणिक काल से ही हम अविष्कार करते आये हैं और उनका श्रेय कोई और लेता गया है. हम अब भी अविष्कार कर सकते हैं और सदा करते रहेंगे. जय भारत.

first of all we have to improve our education system. Doing research and gaining 100% marks in exam are two different things. 100% marks can we achieved by rat-ta marring but research approach can we develop only by quality education. Quality Education- Qualified India.

We need to impart useful education to students. One way is by removing the distinction of physics, chemistry, maths and biology in primary school. Rather it should be a study of natural phenomena which involve a combination of all these subjects. For e.g. Kreb's cycle can be analyzed from the perspective of multiple subjects. For e.g. capillary action analysis with physics, chemical reactions that produce energy from sunlight, quantification of energy production with math, etc.

We need educators. We need teachers who can 'inspire' students. When books are available, we do not need the teacher to simply repeat the content of the book. Rather they should be capable of generating wonder, excitement and intense interest about the subject through insightful discussion that remains with the student long after the class is over. That is the only driving force which propels the student to pick up the book and to stay with the problem even when no solution emerges.

Sir I want to share my idea related to tobacco user and growing number of cases of cancer in India due to tobacco consumption I know it's not easy for gov to ban tobacco products but as you always highlights issue in Man ki baat , you can also appeal citizens to quit smoking and tobacco in any form as you have smartly done in the case of LPG subsidy Sir I also want to suggest that along with a warning on such products there should be some helpline numbers of professionals who can help

Sir we need to refurnish all our Indian government sector hospitals for the growth of the country. Presently the patients are rushing towards private sector where the price range is very expensive and normal salaried person cannot afford. We should renovate all government hospitals throughout India to capture all class of patients. This will be a great step towards our nation betterment with the slogan of Healthy & wealthy India..!

Our country should make scientists as a hero or celebrity for society and students. We should promote scientists through media and other forms. We are having 1cr eng students each one submits Project Report to college. we should collect this report at common place and after scrutiny, if we get at least 1% projects, then also we can make 1 lakh innovation every year
