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".

Again this is a matter of education upliftment. There are more then 500 schools under MHRD, they can be great asset for this purpose, if provided with necessary tools and facilities. MHRD just need to focus and pay attention.

for avishkar to happen it should be promoted both in academic and other ways for e.g. if someone invests his \her time and effort in research on something it should have weightage,till now only bookish knowledge is reflected on our grade sheets.It has to be made rewarding instead of being just a free time activity. avishkar should be promoted at all levels not just at iit or nit levels coz everyone can innovate not just engineers or doctors. every one who innovates shud be brought to light .

The "Mentoring institutions" are working at schools with students to make them appreciate science and maths. In addition to that the institutions should voluntarily take the students to their campuses so that the students can see the big universities, industries for themselves and the inspiration they get through that will make the overall work easier to achieve.

Namaste Child trafficking is important issue.we all know children are kidnapped and are forced laboured.we need to reach out & rescue them. I would suggest a DNA bank.this bank has blood sample of child & parents in its database.so whenever a child is taken to doctor,the doctor can go through the data bank and verify the parents.similarly a kidnapped child will visit a doctor,there atleast its could be traced arrange a program that all children to register their blood. Most important

Make popular not only for viewing but doing, The site is www.instructables.com Let CSR may sponsor the prices either for making the same or for the new projects for Indians only which is the only way to improve skills and the ingenuity too. The skill development programmes of Department of MSME are having the only skill to pick pocket the participants only than real trainings. At present even engineering subjects teaching is no more than cheating. Reply:rameshbhides@gmail.com

Contd.. The quantum of Labour force in these sectors are very high. if this displacement continues these labour force will have a challenge on their employment. The Government should identify these skills to be deployed in other developing nations as well as in advanced nations as these are primary for any Human living.
