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!

Human Rights Day is a great opportunity to spread awareness about the importance of human rights in our communities and worldwide solidarity in re-building after the pandemic.

Every year Human Rights Day - a United Nations designated day - is observed on December 10. The UN encourages nations "to create equal opportunities for all" and address the issues of inequality, exclusion and discrimination.

This year's Human Rights Day focuses on the devastating fallout of COVID-19 pandemic on the underprivileged people, children, and women and the need to "build back better by ensuring human rights are central to recovery efforts".

Today is International Human Rights Day. In a post Covid world, human rights must be at the centre of the recovery efforts. Human Rights Day is observed on December 10 every year.

Respected Modiji, Science improved but the citizens are in fear to argue on the happenings occured while travelling on roads. Arguments lead to fight and death.The enforcement agencies fail to get evidence of occurance to justify the plea of aggrieved where prosecution and aggreived fail in Court.This is most sorrowful situation when there is no witness for the incident.I request to make laws insisting vehicle manufacturers to compulsory inbuilt front,back&side cameras in every vehicle with GPS

Educators of Science, Arts, and Psychology need to develop one platform to prepare syllabus or study material according to kid's age. The class education model should be free-environment based and creative because the foundation of scientism can be put into thoughts from childhood.Every art has a science, and every science has art. Both are including skills. We need to collaborate with both of them to each other. Science on hand make scientific through the science concept.

while science and technology are important, funding the science and technology is even more challenging. the first challenge India will face is funding vaccines for the poor. once govt decides to role out vaccines, govt must plan to let those who can afford to pay, be asked to voluntarily pay for the vaccines. PMs call on gas cylinder subsidy had great support from those who could give up subsidy. same way only lower income people deserve free vaccines and those who can afford should pay

Media can play a significant role in growing scientific temper among Indians which is lacking today. Specially news paper must dedicate one page towards science popularization, and journalist and science writers must encouraged by govt and other dept/bodies for better contribution and innovation. As news paper has high impact on society it will be beneficial in this regard.
