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".

Respected Modiji, I suggest that in when it is so hot summers, the advocates be allowed to wear 'Black Nehru Jacket made of KHADI'. This will be less costlier than Coats and will be weather friendly and promote our Khadi Industry.

Respected PM, We need to accept applications from volunteers for aaviskar. Govt select the persons based on educational background for example an Engineering Degree is mandatory for aviskar in engineering field. Although, knowledge gives people upper hand in comprehending issues but at the same time there may be persons with higher intellect, bent of mind/ experience who could not study engineering due to their family background/ economic backwardness etc. We should also give them opportunity

first we need to involve the private sector in education. Please scrap communal RTE. The education system should be cut short. The number of years of schooling is unwarranted and long. make education till class 5 compulsory. the students should be able to start school at 3 years and by their fifth grade completion should be able read, write, speak and comprehend in regional language. digital and financial literacy should be a part of the curriculum.Internet will take care of the rest.

Respected Modi ji, We should frame a policy of providing all the Govt aided schools and colleges with computerized labs, instead of distributing Lap Tops to the few students as apolitical gimmick. Thus the needy and studious students will excel in their approach for really learning. We have seen that in the past students who were given lap Tops sold them in the market instead of making use for their growth. suman Kumar

Respected Modi ji, The Media has become a noise hour instead of a healthy discussion. Most of the Anchors take about 80% of time giving their own opinions, views and judgments as if they are Super CJI. Law should be made for the Anchors not to interrupt so that the viewers can listen to what the spokesperson is saying. If any channel does not adhere to the healthy practice, it be kept off the air.

Respected Modi ji, Every year on 14th Nov trade fair is opened at Pragti Maidan for a fortnight. My suggestion is that one day should be reserved only for the students up to 12th Standard and entry be made free for them if accompanied by their school teachers and in uniform. Thus the young generation will get personalized attention by the exhibitors and it will be an opportunity for the students to excel.

Getting the specifications rightly in the innovative products is the key to success. Our institutes should allow free access to standards and specifications. the Indian bureau of standards and other standard authorities(for e.g. CSIR) should allow the specifications to be available on the internet freely to allow our innovation capabilities to grow better.

If there could be some arrangement of imparting education online via video conferencing in the remote areas of India via Video conferencing by the privileged youths of our cosmopolitans, who mostly waste their weekends doing nothing substantial.I am sure there will be many who will voluntarily sign up for the activity to impart technical education and some basic skills to the unprivileged kids of our country.By this we can imbibe the sense of responsibility to every citizen towards the Nation.
