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".

Problem solving thinking should be infused in the students from an early age. Students should be encouraged to take by practical projects with leads to solving real world problem, however small it may be. Practical projects can be included in the curriculum of higher classes as well.

Corporates be encouraged to adopt schools for mentoring as a part of corporate social responsibility. The number of schools adopted should be proportional to the number of engineers or skilled graduates employed by the corporate. Govt institutions should also follow the same principle. Guidelines be issued to ensure that offices facilitate such endeavours. Minimum targets be set. Every Educated citizen has to contribute such that we become a knowledgeable and innovative society.

Latest innovative research papers are to be dicussed in the classes as they can give the clear idea about the fields where research is going on and what are the limitations these papers contain must be properly explained.

theory and practical knowledge should go hand in hand. generally in all the colleges focus is only on theoritical part and practical implementation of that knowledge is not given to students.if both go hand in hand,students will be able to connect it with real world and that would be more productive.

Young Indian brains are more innovative than others, but due to our education system and further on government job policies make it difficult to use it properly. Many shift to developed countries where MNCs paid for his/her innovative thinking and few struggles with the system during early phase of career and finally make adjustment to survive and progress in system.

Abolish this grading system let the kids to explore things from their experiences, make the young generation Knowledge seeker not a reader. Let them develop skills of leadership. Make them aware about the need to Innovate rather then giving lectures and writing books on innovation.

I wanted to share one observation on one of a weakest section of society, Vegetable vendors. "The Thelawala", who picks up his cart every day morning, pushes his cart to the local Mandi(market) and than sells the local produce, Street by Street, shouting in top of voice to attract the attention of house wives. The same "Thela" is his Bed in the night or probably as he/she sleeps anxious whether the "Thela" would be available by the morning he gets up.
