The organization had organized Science and Technology Awareness among school students and
farmers in Lalitpur district of Uttar Pradesh.
With the support of the National Council for Science & Technology Communication (NCSTC),
Department of Science & Technology, Government of India, a Science & Technology
Awareness Campaign was successfully organized across all five blocks of Lalitpur
district, Uttar Pradesh, during 2023.
The programme covered Bar, Birdha, Jakhora, Mahroni, and Talbehat blocks, engaging
around 1,000 students (200 students in each block) through interactive workshops,
lectures, competitions, and science exhibitions.
Key activities included science awareness sessions, drawing, quiz, debate,

Bringing Knowledge to Your Doorstep through Science on Wheels Under NCSTC, Department of Science & Technology
"Bringing Knowledge to Your Doorstep through Science on Wheels" is an innovative science
outreach initiative designed to make science
accessible, engaging, and experiential for
students in underserved regions of West Bengal. The project is being implemented across
the
districts of Jalpaiguri, Koch Bihar, Nadia, North 24 Parganas, and South 24 Parganas,
with a
special focus on Scheduled Caste-dominated and Other Backward Areas where access to
practical science education is limited.
The Mobile Science Bus visits middle, secondary, and senior secondary schools, providing
hands-on learning opportunities through interactive demonstrations, scientific
experiments, and exposure to modern technologies. Students explore working models such
as the Laser Security System, Fire Alarm System, LPG Leakage Detector, Tesla Coil,
Drone, Solar-Powered Systems, Automatic Water Level Indicator, Artificial Intelligence
Module, Disaster Management Model, and many more.
The programme also includes sessions on mathematics in daily life, renewable energy,
environmental conservation, disaster preparedness, and emerging technologies such as
Artificial Intelligence and sensor-based automation. Through inquiry-based learning,
students are encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and develop a scientific
temperament.
Feedback received from students and teachers has been overwhelmingly positive.
Participants appreciated the opportunity to experience science beyond textbooks,
interact with functional models, and gain practical knowledge relevant to everyday life.
The project has successfully sparked curiosity, enhanced scientific understanding, and
inspired students to explore careers and opportunities in science and technology.
