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 As we know that many educated people are unemployed so you could make a team of those who know about science and technology and they could go and teach in govt. school.Nowadays many govt. school teacher are not educated enough to teach children so you can also make a team of qualified people to go to every school and take a exam of teachers.In this way childer will get a good source of education

Dear sir, Seeding of ideas would be favourable at early age; say primary school stage/age group less than 8 years. Identification of such individuals in formal & non formal environment and providing continuous support can blossom the selected individuals. I am ready to participate in such activities; I recently retd as gm from bhel, am located at Hyderabad and am able to communicate in Marathi, English and Hindi. Awaiting guidance from mygov

The schemes or funds to SC &ST welfare school boys and girls ...like wise there are many things which are not going well for the students ..it should be mind to help poor ...then only they can do...the people who can think in such way that only they and their family wanted to eat and be happy cannot do things and they cant do justice to poor people.

govt should give funds to those people who can do voluntarily by utilising the funds ....Not like the people who are in Respectable Position and its their duty and responsibility to do those things..these people do things less and eat govt funds...so its waste of money to give such work to them...

Good Morning Sir, A great idea to "ignite their minds". But the question is WHO will ignite their minds ? As we face a shortage of well qualified teachers, I think there should be an active role by the scientific institutions across the nation to depute senior scientists and academicians to teach students at school and college levels. A moral obligation or commitment should be made by the senior scientists to spend few hours of the week to take lectures, give presentations at appropriate level.
