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, Recently there is lot of hue and cry for Section 3(d) of Indian Patent Act 1970 in India. Indian system of patent thinks that patent granted only if you have idea of novelty in dream and non-obviousness when you are half wakeup and industrial research in wake up state. Such practice is very vague. This could led to backwardness in innovations and hence we are even behind KOREA. We cannot exist against CHINA and US. Please change this stance to INCREMENTAL DEVELOPMENT of patent granting.

1. Students can best be "ignited" by engaging them directly in exciting research projects at these institutions. They should be made active members of ongoing research projects and made "responsible" for real work - they should feel that they are expected to contribute in a meaningful way (read about "Special Engineer Detachment" in chapter "Los Alamos from Below", in the book "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!").

Avishkar Aviyan can ignite young mind when the students at tender age are exposed to ignited minds.Teachers at primary education struggle with their own problems of low & irregular salary. Government should fill up the gap of quality teachers by creating an online database of working & retired professionals willing to contribute to the society by teaching students on a particular subject giving practical insights to text book science, mathematics. Database can be made at all panchayat level.

Selection of teachers in primary/high schools should be made as per vacancy in specific subject wise. It should be conducted through an open Interview process consisting of written test, GD, ppt & PI. BEd or any Teachers' Training certificate should not be given credit or should be removed from the eligibility criteria.

Our government should shift the matter of Education from the Sate list to the Union List in our constitution; so that it can be helpful for implementing uniform policies for the development of education in our country which can lead ti new inventions, discoveries, researches. The criteria for recruitment of teachers in Primary and High Schools in our country should be changed. There should be a minimum qualification of Post-Graduation to become teacher.
