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".

Few points i would like to share are as below, 1) Mentoring institutions should also focus on developing the existing study material thro' interactive sessions so that children find study friendly. 2) Interests of students must be taken into account. 3) The same abhiyan should also be extended to other fields such as Arts, Commerce, Vocational Skills.

Doing innovation or invention is one thing n making prototype is another n making tht product in such way wch could make pple to buy,it is very long n tough process for a young guy,so pple started saying dont do many innovation make one ,n open factory n sell it in to market..evn though my spirit is to invent things.bt society made me to think of money first thn innovation.so i think we should think of ths also,thts how to motivate young mind to concentrate on their passion for inventing things

an innovation cant b judge as it is big or small. innovation is innovation, so there should be reward for evry one who has evn with small innovation

as possible. It is good to involve the software in this process. The concept of mentoring institutions is also very good. As the mentoring institutions excel in this regard they could be of real help. Institutions like IITs, NITs, Central Institutions, IISERs and Central State Universities and Colleges which already have expertise in the fields related will not only act smart but also be able to handle the projects well. Apart from that there should be marking pattern as to how successful

great saying by the great "Swami Vivekananda"that 'NOTHING CAN EVOLVE WHICH HAS NOT ALREADY EVOLVED'.If the child is made to believe that he could do this, then it could make sense of his involvement. Believing is the first step in the event to happen according to the rule of probability. Seeing is believing, we should first make him look at some important inventions and discoveries which took place in India. In the 1st phase that is the 1st 3 years he should be provided with as many exhibitions

A road map should be laid down first of all to instill interest in the child for which the services of psychologists should also be taken to chalk out a program which best suits the child of a certain age group. Accordingly plan of action should be determined. The first 3 years of the abhiyan should also aim at exhibition of the indigenous discoveries whose patent is with India. This would not only let the child thinking that if its already happened then it could happen again. 'Based on the
