The President of India, Smt Droupadi Murmu presented the 11th Biennial
National Grassroots Innovation and Outstanding Traditional Knowledge Awards of
NIF at Rashtrapati Bhavan Cultural Centre (RBCC) today (April 10, 2023).
She also inaugurated Festival of Innovation and Entrepreneurship (FINE) –2023
at the Sports Ground near RBCC.
Speaking at the Award function, the President
said that citizens at the grassroots have the potential to come up with Science
and Technology based innovative solutions and serve the country to the best of
their abilities. National Innovation Foundation (NIF) plays a significant role
in encouraging and supporting such innovators. She noted that NIF has pooled a
database of over 325000 technological ideas, innovations and traditional
knowledge practices from over 625 districts of the country. She was also happy
to note that NIF has already recognised 1093 grassroots innovators and school
students at the national level in its various Award Functions.
The President said that today we are celebrating
not just the achievements of innovators but the spirit of creativity,
innovation and entrepreneurship. We can see small innovations happening every
other day around us. We just have to understand and encourage the creativity
and innovation which is already present everywhere.
The President said that one important aspect of
supporting and enhancing creativity is to encourage children and youth to ask
questions. Curiosity and spirit of enquiry are essential for finding out
solutions to challenging problems. Our children should grow up to become
solution providers.
The President said that another important thing
is that our citizens should have the zeal to serve the country. He or she
should try to understand the problems and issues arising in the country and
should feel responsible to contribute towards solving them may be at
a small scale. She urged innovators, entrepreneurs, traditional knowledge
holders and industry representatives to come together to find eco-friendly and sustainable
solutions and encourage innovations in this direction.
The President said that FINE is a unique effort
which promotes science, technology and innovation and encourages the citizens
to undertake entrepreneurship and make their mark in India and abroad. She said
that the spirit of entrepreneurship and the zeal to find solutions to
challenging problems should be encouraged and rewarded.
