Prime Minister Narendra Modi has completed 25 years in public service, a journey defined by the mantra of Jan Seva Se Desh Seva, and a relentless commitment that continues. Guided by this vision for Seva and Sushasan, the Government has been ceaselessly working towards achieving the goal of a Viksit Bharat by 2047. Through inclusive development and social empowerment, this dedication is transforming lives. Today, in our special series, we bring you an instance of how this vision has been translated into action through the Atal Innovation Mission.  

Atal Innovation Mission AIM which was setup in 2016 is Government of India’s flagship initiative to promote a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship in the country. Under the NITI Aayog, the Mission has taken a holistic approach to ensure creation of a problem-solving innovative mindset in schools and creating an ecosystem of entrepreneurship in universities, research institutions, private and MSME sector. All the initiatives of Atal Innovation Mission are currently monitored and managed systematically using real-time MIS systems and dynamic dashboards. It is also currently having its programs reviewed by third party agencies for ensuring continuous improvements. 

Sharing his thoughts in the Mann Ki Baat programme on Akashvani in 2016, Mr Modi had said that government has taken steps to attract the new generation toward science and research through Atal Innovation Mission.

Talking to Akashvani News, Saumya, a student said that atal tinkering labs under the Mission made her understand that skills and innovative thoughts help students to make their futures bright. 

Atal Innovation Mission AIM is creating and promoting a vibrant culture of innovation and entrepreneurship across the length and breadth of India. It is creating employment, products, and innovative processes by fostering collaboration, vision, and passion.
