India Science (www.indiascience.in) is an Internet-based science Over-The-Top (OTT) TV channel. It is an initiative of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Govt of India , implemented and managed by Vigyan Prasar (VP), an autonomous organisation of Department of Science and Technology. This 24x7 video platform is dedicated to science and technology knowledge dissemination, with a strong commitment to spreading scientific awareness especially with Indian perspectives, ethos and cultural milieu. The initiative is supported by National Council of Science and Technology Communication (NCSTC), DST.

Science and Technology are the main driving forces of the nation and fundamental to the progress and growth. But there is a distinct difference between “science” and “scientific”.

What do you think, is the difference and where do you think they relate with each other? How do the two words contribute to building and reinforcing scientific temper among the youth? Send us your views!

Vedic Science: Vedas have said many things related to space, medicine, astronomy, astrology etc.. on various scientific and mathematic topics with precision long back, that are now being rediscovered by modern science. We should bring out those vedic values and introduce to our young minds. Analyze them to find answers to many questions today. Many foreign countries do that silently, we should do it more effectively and timely. Else foreigners will start owning them as done before.

The lock down due to corona pandemic gave opportunity too. The MOOC became more popular and it has enhanced overall learning opportunity amongst all people irrespective of their age or income. I am sure this will contribute significantly in growing scientific temperament amongst Indian.

The Scientific temper is a way of life which uses the scientific method and which may, consequently, include questioning, observing physical reality, testing, hypothesizing, analysing, and communicating.

Corporates need to be given task of food processing ,with machines and factories , and by product of food sales and export ,and deal with consumers of processed food and not become consumer ,like govt says farmers have choice of corporate sale , msp , sale thru apmc , etc viceversa corporate also can buy from farmers or thru apmc , no need of law to create insecurity among stakeholders and masses unless there is hidden agenda

As such some masses of farmers of prevailing culture and less education ,logically they being correct , they dont know who is owner of corporate body , and they need to meet him for satisfaction of deals , or for greivances , like ambanis cant meet all farmers , or viceversa ,and in documents and legal battle corporates always win ,but with govt they have agricultural minister and govt to deal with them , who are quite equipped to deal with masses
