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".

"Avishkar" and Entrepreneurship go hand in hand. We should have product development and incubation cell at all the engineering colleges and Science colleges. This should be funded by both alumni of the school and government.

Education is a place to learn whether it can be a subject or sports, currently they have place in schools but its a humble request to introduce SANGEET (sa re ga ma paa) option for kids/youths in Education.

To be inventive, our teachers and students need to read published patents. This is ONE single low hanging fruit, which is ironically eluding the thoughts of our educationists of India. By reading patents, the students and teachers shall come to an amusing realization that avishkar or day to day innovation is something which is NOT a rocket science - anyone with interest in solving mundane problems around can be an avishkarak. I have oriented few students to read patents- it is thrilling!

Integration of universities, institutes for R & D resources (Students) and industry is still missing. This kind of IP )Intellectual property) thus developed can be made available to industry at very low cost so that they can benefit and are at the same level playing field as their counterpart in other countries like China/US etc. India lacks in innovation not due to talent but due to lack of finances required for R & D. One year (out of 4) of studies should be devoted in such activities.
