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".

Competitions like spelling bee conducted in USA and all are gaining International fame and always its toppers include Indians. Why can't we conduct such International events with due publicity in the science, maths, English language etc. Students should be given platforms to perform. Maths Olympiad and science congresses conducted in India occupies only inner columns of national dailies and many students are unaware of such occasions. This phenomenon has to be changed.

अविश्कार का अर्थ नई खोज ही समझा जायेगा इस को विस्तरित करें वर्तमान साधनों और सेवाओं की गुन्वत्ता में वृद्धि को भी अविश्कार की श्रेणी में रखा जाये उदाहरण के लिये यदि कोई रेलवे में पैसैंजर गाडी की उप्योगिता बढाने के लिये कार्य करता है हमारे दिन प्रतिदिन होने वाले कार्य उपयोग में आनी वाली वस्तुयें सेवायें सभी का समावेश होना चाहिये स्कूलों में informal तरीकों से धन और समय का बेहतर उपयोग किया जा सकता है

nice initiative! please start with the schools.collaborate school with nearest technical colleges and colleges to nearest industries and apply slogan "give and take " . I think which plays a very crucial role in the innovation and technology. training of the teacher also plays a very important roles so starts the training of teachers also. Make the list of best teacher and professor and scientist and ask to trained the other faculty in the remote areas though online and arranging seminar in the Holiday basis which will create great energy to the students and teachers.

I request Modiji to utilise the services of Shri.Raju Narayana Swami,IAS who has been consistently ignored by political establishment of all hues for his unstinted commitment to the Society ,poor and down trodden.Swamy,a Role model for how an IAS official should be, had done pioneering work in computer education(was first rank holder from IIT,Chennai in computer science,not to speak of his second to none in all competitive/academic exams including IAS),civil admn-can be an asset to TEAM MODI

sir,there should be a system in which all interested person should be given opportunity based on their qualification to work for some time in such environment without facing tough competition and reservation barriers,this will enhance their skill and interest,which is lost due to lack of opportunities...

Rashtriya Avishkar Abhiyan : Name is very well but path taking is not correct. partnership with google & intel ( American companies ) to promote STEM area which is american need. Indians are smart in Science , Math . India is already highest & best producing Engineers. Only Remaining thing is to improve education system with more practical approach which they can get through experience . Rule need to be compulsory for any challenge: Project work / paper can not be plagiarized
