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".

aviskar or invention mostly comes from two sector engineering and core science.At present both of these sectors ARE at its bottom.. indian engineers no matter which stream they belong have become IT coolies.there are more engineers than required in India,and as supply is more than demand quality degrades.Indian harbours large number of unemployed engineers, GOVT CAN USE THESE BEROJGAR ENGG INTO R&D ,THEY WILL WRK EVN FOR MINM WAGE.AND CAN BOOST INNOVATION HERE

Mandatory Scholarships Program for all BPL class people cutting across all casts and religion: I would like to urge through this post requesting Govt. of India to consider mandatory scholarships for all till 10th Class. This will create interest in all poor people and all will be able to take at least education till 10th level. The amount and other conditions can be worked out by Govt. but definitely this will be a great help for poor people of our country.

standard of education in India should be increased as over the years we have noticed that foreign based Indian students create wonderful things while in India they can't this is because of education in foreign countries and moreover in India students are not supported to think out of the box and even if they are supported then dont have a platform to present their idea

Sir, though digital communication is catching on, consistent signal, speed of reception is questionable in several far flung areas. It will be better, at least for the present to use Door darshan with a dedicated satellite and slot for science education. Gyaan darshan channel leaves a lot to be desired. Better programming, efficient use of time and resources, improved presentations, greater involvement of participating institutions will help in improving the scientific temper.
