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!

Telecommunications network towers have been set up at the remotest of the remote regions too. Therefore, Science and Technology is like a boon for the overall scientific and economic development of the country.

Aligned countries must keep the targets in coincidence. Under AADTIC group countries .(Attacks Aligned for Distributed Targets with International Coincidence. )In case of sudden attack or war. Prepare to make ready to teach cunning poletecians to show their end.

in case of kian movement we should either defer it or leave to the states to implement it .there is no issue of ego.sometimes we have to get defeat st the hands of children to see them happy.You have done so much for them.if we do not accede to their demands all the good work done for them will go waste.

With global warming there are extreme conditions being faced by various areas in the country. So, the extremities & the science of mastering such extremities are known to some of the regions. So this science and the temperament needs to be quickly replicated among others who are facing it now and have little knowledge. This will help our farmers to become resilient with the changing times. So it is not about knowing science but about replicating science of masses which is with us from ages.

सृष्टि के ज्ञान का नाम ही विज्ञान ही।जिस भारत भूमि पर वेदों के ज्ञान का संकलन हुआ उसे यूनानी विचारधारा से प्रभावित कर कितना भी आत्मा परमात्मा कि काल्पनिक अवधारणा की ओर मोड़ने का प्रयत्न किया जाय बीज के भीतर का ज्ञान पुनः अपना ज्ञान प्रदर्शित अवश्य करता है यही कारण है कि भारत का युवा आजादी मिलने के बाद तेजी से विज्ञान कि उन दिशाओं में आगे बढ़ रहा है जो उसके ज्ञान को विस्तृत करती है।वह कथित धर्मो के प्रतिबंधों को लांघकर तेजी से अपना ओर देश का विकास कर रहा है।

As the world is evolving, people are ought to develop a properly managed and a scientifically optimistic attitude towards science ,its practise in daily life and its acceptance. There are many talented and creative people in India,they should be given space to grow, camps should be organized to encourage them, nurture their thoughts and work on other young and creative minds too..(That's the most important point ! Because due to some reasons or the people's acceptance people leave India)

8. Expose your mind to all kinds of information and to all opposing perspectives around each subject. “It’s sort of a mental attitude about critical thinking and curiosity. It’s about mindset of looking at the world in a playful and curious and creative way.” – Adam Savage.

An effect has to be reproducible, before it can be considered reliable evidence. Also even if an effect is well-replicated, this does not make it automatically generalisable to a category other than the one used to produce the evidence.

A single study or a single case not does suffice to explain or prove the existence of a phenomenon. One-off case studies or anecdotes are interesting and can be useful (especially in the cases of rare diseases for example) but may not offer much more than that initial interest going forward
