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".

The age limit in research area linked jobs should be removed. This would enable many brains which had earlier migrated to return to India.Presently the question of insecurity is holding them.Age limit concept is not there in many foreign countries especially for very special jobs like research.

Research scholars in various national institutions can be engaged in this activity. A call from PMO/MHRD can be sent to all the institution asking the interested scholars to join in a platform to serve this noble intent. Both way, the young minds will be ignited. A special honorary award can be declared for value addition to it.

Dear sir,

I am passed out from NIT and worked for leading company in its R&D division.Corporates too have responsibility in Innovation.Government should link discount on corporate tax on basis of no. of patents application filed not on basis of expenditure on R&D.Corporates should be persuaded to sponsor projects in IIT/NITs and these expenditures should be considered for rebate in corporate tax.We should celebrate innovation week,innovation nite innovation day across all companies in India.

Dear PM i am a student of engineering but in my college, i found that on the name of engineering college it's just an examination center because the rate of innovation and technology. Teachers just tell us the theory that's it in labs we just do last year repeated practicals.You want a digital India but innovation in these type of institutes are null. Some of the students of all branches even don't know their aim . I request MHRD ministry to keep check on these colleges

Following are my suggestions.
1.Science exhibitions should be conducted in every school, two times a year.
2.Trips should be taken by all the schools to visit industries, labs, science centres to explain real use of science.
3.A very grand science project competition should be held by government at an international level every year.Selected indian participients will be guided by proffesors of IIT's, NIT's and other remarkable scientists by video conferencing.

Its a good initiative. I would like to add below suggestions to make this more effective.
1. science exhibitions to be held every year with a cluster 10-15 villages as a unit. winners are allowed to enter district level competition. at the same venue there should be lectures/demos by renowned scientists to encourage students.
2. R&D should be allocated 3% of GDP funds to increase research facilities and to attract more people towards research.good results encourages students to pursue research

this is a good initiative no doubt but i wonder how to entrust the feeling of curiosity to wards science technical streams within the aspirants the techsavvy children can be addressed by using some competitions qiuzzing methods. but bringing large number of students interested into science technical fields need more direct methods young minds are very impatient a speciallised way of approach as to engage the minds in this science temper needs wor to be done at grassroot levels

it's a good initiative. in our government and even at private school , there is lack of quality education.i firmly believe that if iit's professor or respective field area expert will interact with the school student by the visual medium in their language and in a lucid and a simple manner then i think that we can generate more national assets as a scientists, engineers or many things . i think emphasis should be on the basic and on the fundamental science.
