Inauguration of Mobile Science Lab
On Wednesday, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai inaugurated the 'Bhavna Didi Ki Science Pathshala', a mobile lab focused on emerging technologies. The launch event took place in Raipur and was attended by notable figures including Chhattisgarh Assembly Speaker Raman Singh, Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sharma, Arun Saw, and other ministers. This initiative aims to provide school students with education in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, drones, aeromodelling, the Internet of Things (IoT), coding, and 3D printing. The free mobile science lab will be operated by the 'Bhavna Samaj Sevi Sansthan', an NGO led by Bhavna Bohra, a BJP legislator from Pandaria.
Significance of the Project
During the launch, Chief Minister Sai emphasized the importance of this project at a time when the world is embracing AI. He remarked that as the world enters the era of artificial intelligence, Bhavna Didi is dedicating a 'Science School' in the form of a bus, which serves as a lab for emerging technologies. Students will learn five different technologies, and the lab will visit middle schools, high schools, and higher secondary schools, proving to be beneficial for students in the future.
Benefits for Students
BJP legislator Bhavna Bohra highlighted the advantages of the mobile science lab for students. She mentioned that this initiative specifically targets 11th and 12th-grade students from the Pandaria assembly area, as well as children from Shishu Mandirs and government schools. The lab will teach them about AI technology, robotics, and various other science-related subjects that will be useful in their future careers. A five-day camp will be organized at their respective schools.
Future Aspirations
She further stated that after completing the camp, students will gain a solid understanding of AI, how drones operate, how robots are built, and their applications in surgeries. Whether in forested areas or throughout the Pandaria constituency, students will acquire valuable knowledge and learn many new concepts related to modern science. Bohra revealed that the plan aims to educate at least 5,000 to 6,000 students within a year, focusing particularly on 11th and 12th graders from government schools and Shishu Mandirs.
