There should be a portal where basic information of a book (e.g: publication year, price and publisher's name) is accessible to anyone after entering the ISBN. (If there's no such portal in existence). I notice many publishers do not mention the publication year in a specific type of books because they know it'll become outdated in a short time (e.g: books for competitive exams, previous years' papers, current affairs etc.) It will help us find out actual publication year before buying online.

- There should be clear instructions to help everyone understand the process of getting an ISBN number for an e-book. (It wasn't mentioned anywhere on the internet and I had to contact ISBN office. Fortunately, they were very helpful.)

We need to build libraries in each village and provide books to members free of cost. The books should promote tech knowledge, brotherhood, healthy living and civic discipline. Library can be equipped with digital contents as well.

Pm Modi Sir, Hindi is the most spoken and Understood Language of our Country but often the medium of Highly popular and effective Science books is English.The Students who have good Scientific temperament are supposed to Learn English first to understand the concepts of Science. Can we form a Ministry which can provide Hindi versions of all the Science books at lower costs? This way we will find more Students from Rural areas with High Scientific temperament and Hindi will also be promoted.
