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".

Curiosity comes when you introduce with something.We can make students curious to these subjects by arranging a introduction in a better way. For e.g, students usually curious about the High profile people. Session of people like scientists, Doctors, Scholars, talented undergraduates , employees of tech.firms or skilled people can be arranged with students on classroom level, on which they can tell them about basic science behind a innovation,related history and many other information.

To make a change in India we have to make all the next generation as educated.we also have some to change our education system.The education system should consist of practical learning.And another thing which i want to say but very sad to say is 3/4 th teachers were lagging in in-depth knowledge. so government should take step to ensure knowledgeable teachers in schools and ensure quality education in means of practical learning.

Research, Innovation, etc is all about applied knowledge. The focus of our schools is only on theory. Just recently I visited almost all well known schools in Ahmedabad. Most of them did not even had a lab. My suggestion is that school recognition procedures should focus on lab infrastructure. Audits should ensure that labs are well equipped. Exams should incorporate practicals. And this should be enforced from primary school onward. The NCERT textbooks have wealth of information on practical
