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!

When encountered with a problem, knowing which skills to utilize, the manner in which to use them and how to work through a process in a logical fashion are essential to growth in understanding.

Learning skills to support scientific thinking is an important part of a young child’s development. As children progress into adulthood, using scientific thinking truly becomes an art.

I suggest this cabinet to sanction for building man made only neem forest a minimum of 500 acres, from which the products neem oil to export or use as raw materials for pharmaceutical industries , and the waste extracts to use for bio fertilizers and aid for pest control in organic agro farm crops. It is preferred if the upcoming budget can accommodate this vital and important project to meet for current organic crop demands.

Any Govt at best can only create a good platform for things to develop be it science/technology/medicine/healthy living. As it is anything that Govt does is not sustainable. The reason could be that no faith due to corrupt practices followed by administrators. And secondly the antinational forces are more free than the administrators to control any activity. Honestly we need extreme dictatorship control on antinational forces. Punishing poor people with fines and easy liquor firmly should stop

Unadulterated Indian culture has everything in the world to be proud of. It can just achieve glory in any field provided it is left to grow. It is shackled now. It is dragging with a baggage of antinational forces which are very free to indulge in anti lawful activities. Indian culture is Hindu culture. All others should not have the free go. They have to be curtailed and controlled. India has to be Hindu nation for it to grow and develop.

Require high vigilance in border and coastal sensitive areas to monitor with special squads using Drones and laser detectors continuously. Under water and underground sensors may help in communicating data for monitoring areas.This is the area where we have to look for advanced technology and can be projected as one of the research areas for doing indigeniously

SCIENCE is a systematic understanding of our surrounding (can be anything like climatic changes, animals behavior any many such). Where as putting up all the knowledge derived from studies into physical motion in a systematic way is what is known as SCIENTIFIC. We all are aware of causes, consequences,and result of GLOBAL WARMING, it means we have enough knowledge, which makes us good caretakers of our Earth but what if we lack sense scientific in us ?? The same situation is prevailing today

Organic irrigation knowledge is needed for healthy life. Organic agriculture education policy has been more important for Organic ENVIRONMENT HEALTH and Human health. BHARATIYA's old Organic policy has been good. Online training programs for farmers are good knowledge of Organic irrigation systems. Organic irrigation many purposes good. And Environmental health is more effective. Organic knowledge and it's utility can be best for healthy life . Environment health safety good.
