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".

Innovations are possible when opportunities are created for the inherent curious mind of children by promoting and encouraging them to observe, think and ask questions right from childhood, both at home and educational centers. Moreover, lessons on teamwork through stories and hands-on activities are just as essential for instilling the values of pooling in the talents of all. Win-win for all. Teacher training may be needed to accommodate new teaching styles and strategies.

Policies will not achieve its shore until their is lack of deep study behind the problems. I did M.Sc(Physics) from BHU but currently I'm working in a Bank. The reasons lies in the culture of Research and the surrounding Environment that is spoiling its soul. The Govt. needs to identify the problem and should focus on the Research scholars that are very much interested in Science but facing various problems while pursuing it. What you are giving to them??? What they want??

Our Scientist should find out or generate plastic eating bacteria. Bacteria who can decompose plastic waste within a year. Plastic waste is biggest threat for life on earth.We should avoid using plastic in our daily life.

Tell the importance of the Science and Mathematics before start teaching the subject in schools. Tell them how, when & where we use. Give examples & case studies like short stories. Create an opportunity for all kids & young people to own advanced technology & hardware parts to play games (like Xbox, PlayStation), access Scfic movies & research details (Like MOM) this will create interest in people to understand how these things are made then they will start liking and dreaming to make their own

We can use the amateur skills of the students studying Engineering course and also those of people who although not trained, have the knack of Engineering.

A great step taken by MHRD as a tribute for Bharat Ratna Late Dr.A.P.J.Abdul Kalam. The abhiyan can create contests and giving prizes are not enough but the contests should make the student realize in which field he/she is strong enough and can pursue his/her dreams... Jai Hind

धनवान कैसे बनें देखा जाता है प्रत्येक व्यक्ति धनवान बनना चाहता प्रत्येक माता पिता सर्वोपरि धन अपनी सन्तान की माने कल वह सन्तान कुछ भी अच्छा करेगी तो हर स्थिति में माता पिता का नाम स्वतः ही ऊँचा उठ जायेगा जैसे माता की तपष्या ही एक बच्चे को प्रधानमंत्री तक पहुँचा सकती है तो कौन सा पद शेष रह सकता है| दूसरी तरफ प्रत्येक संतान को माता पिता को ही सर्वोपरि धन मानना चाहिये आज वह जो कुछ है या कल होंगे उसमें माता पिता के आशीर्वाद का भी मुख्य अंश है|इस तरह से भी धनवान बन सकते है | सौरभ

The hge money is being spent for achieving targeted goals. Everywhere ,we find gaps in targets and achivements.Where is the fault ? Many young minds are becoming frustrated due to lack of opportunities. Parents are in confusion where do they admit their wards. Teacher is a kingpin in the entire educational gamut. A big gap is found in demand for school and demand for school teacher. I humbly request our Prime Minister to make policy in view of the demand for school and teacher education.
