Role of media
Media plays a big role in making students achieve, it gives a boost when students’ achievements come out in the news, only now the government has started to pay close attention to the students’ inventions, he said that an innovation center will be set up in the next three weeks in Kinthadavu School, Coimbatore.
Playground
He said that only because of the sports field, athletes are formed and if a laboratory is created, students can better implement their interest, and there are competitions for books at the world level. Therefore, he emphasized that we should create students and schools for that. Not all students can become scientists but it is wrong if interested students are not given a chance.
