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".

Sir, all government / corporation run schools should be tagged to a higher center teaching science & technology, even arts & science colleges with research facilities. For this all colleges have to be graded with uniform eligibility criteria and planned syllabi. Starred colleges can aid local school children with science experiments and preparing projects & participating in science exhibitions & science talent tests.

first make sure the implementation of ICT@school program throughout the country, then we could think of Rashtriya Aviskar Yojna. Until our students n teachers in rural areas are not technically sound, how could we integrate science, math with technology. RAY should be named after Dr.Kalam and its rural reach out strategies must be defined.

presently IISER are really doing good in generating interest among the student but its is limited to metros student from rural India do not participate much in research partly due to lack of awareness and partly due to inadequate guidance on the contrary ICAR could achieve high participation of rural youth because of its policies truly speaking IISER are becoming page 3 research institute highly qualified faculties with metropolitan students rural chapters of IISER should be opened

Sir, to promote the innovative mindset in our children, we should make it mandatory to have Robotics after 6th standard in all schools as a central policy. This will attract young minds towards mechanics as well as electronics. Also we should hold world robotics competition.

Sir, as per my opinion exams conducts by govt at different standards by centre govt. and the district topper or tahsil topper get extra marks or point or priority at the time of engineering or diploma admission .only trophy or cash prise have one time value but this type of admission benefit will give continues interest to students. If any student come more than five time topper than his engineering admission is confirm .this type reservation for admission is required .

I am against Cce pattern in the field of education, as it is making the students hopeless, and I want that actions should be taken quickly , so that new pattern can be introduced from next session.

Rashtriya Avishkar Abhiyan is a good opportunity for the student & our country also.If students will grow their knowledge in technical line,then it will help to develop our countrymen. 1.For this good teachers & students must be needed.Without a good teacher,build some good student is quite impossible.So,Must hired those teachers in the schools who have a good technical knowledge and student friendly.Only then students will encourage for something new. 2.Provide moral classes for the students.

I think Rashtriya Avishkar Abhiyan is a good concept.Now-a-days our educational system become too casual.No matter pass-fail in exam upto class 1 to 9.So students also become casual about their education. 1.So,previous system should be come again.Without getting the passing marks no one can go to the next class. 2.Some interesting subject must be included like work education,PT,technical class etc which increasing the creativity of the students. 3.Provide technically good & friendly teachers.
