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".

THE CONCERNED DEPARTMENT SHOULD SINCERELY REMAIN ALERT ON EVERY NEW DISCOVERY OR INVENTION EVEN IF THAT MIGHT BE A SINGLE CLUE TO ANY ACCENT...LIKE A COMMON FACT...if there is pre birth and re birth then there were to be a fixed number of population on this earth as per the fact! But the reality is the population is ever growing? Then who is being reborn ed? who is being re birthed? Until you recognize a first clue..the inventor / discoverer can't grow!

If govt can organise a series of national hackathons sponsored by our IT giants, we can offer students the platform for app development, fire up their imagination and also discover talent at a very young age. Hackathon winners at various levels can be offered scholarships for higher education. Also, if computer science education can be made deliverable oriented eg every child must launch an app on playstore at the end of the year, they will get hands on exposure

The international math olympiad is a great championship where India once used to dominate but now do not. Setting up a national math and science olympiad championship and encouraging kids across the nation to participate and also incentivise national champions with auto admission into IITs can create a massive interest in math and science

NASA has maintained Kennedy ans Johnson space centres as spectacular public centres that demonstrate American science and technology in beautiful ways to children. They build an interest in science and also nationalism among children. If ISRO facilities are made into something similar that will generate huge interest among children in Science.Theycan be paid for by charging normal visitors while keeping them free for kids

All schools have SUPW as a subject. If we convert SUPW into a program where children have to build something concrete and make it work eg LED based lighting system for colonies, children will truly see the impact of technology in practice,thus firing up their imagination. They will also contribute to nation building. Corporates can be encouraged to fund SUPW labs in all schools as part of their CSR

One way to do this is to allow companies to treat the hosting of industrial visits by students, projects to school students etc as csr. This will fire up the imagination of children as more and more of them visit modern factories and see technology in action. This will also keep factories on their toes in terms of cleanliness, safety etc

ELECTRICITY I have an idea to reduse the electricity cost. If we make electricity wirefree by using air than we will not expand the more money on electricity line. It is a strang idea but it is possible because we are already using it with our cellphone but in small level.We need to make it with 220 volts. Now it is on 6 volts & R F waves. Electricity will be in air like cellphone signal evryone have a meter like cellphone prepaid & postpaid. This is super wappon if we chanalize this power
