Hyderabad: ‘Intinta Innovator’ to scout, recognise those solving grassroot challenges
Once again it is a good opportunity for the young and enthusiast innovator.
hyderabad: Once again it is a good opportunity for the young and enthusiast innovator.
The Telangana State Innovation Cell (TSIC) has come up with ‘Intinta Innovator’ to scout and recognize innovators who are solving grassroot challenges.
According to TSIC, the last date to submit innovations for this year’s ‘Intinta Innovator’ programme is August 10. The selected best innovators will be provided with a chance to exhibit their innovations at their respective district’s Independence Day celebrations. Innovators can apply by sending name, address, six-line description, two-minute video or four pictures of the innovation via WhatsApp on 91006-78543.
The TSIC was established to foster the culture of innovation and as a first response of the State to promote innovation, especially, rural and grassroots innovation, across the 33 districts. Since 2019 it has been conducting the flagship programme ‘Intinta Innovator’.
The main focus of the programme is to scout the frugal innovations that are innovative and ease the pain point of people, added an officer.
Shanta Thoutam, Chief Innovation Officer of Telangana heading TSIC said, “culture of innovation should be nurtured from a budding stage; TSIC has been in the forefront for the past four years in scouting innovators across the 33 districts and transforming their lives. So far, 700+ innovations have been scouted. We encourage everyone to think out of the box, aspire to solve problems, and showcase their innovations by taking part in the programme.”
Remembering a few innovators who have gained identity with their unique innovation: Arunjyothi S Lokhanday, homemaker from Nalgonda, who was scouted in 2020 at ‘Intinta Innovator’ exhibition innovated a paper napkin containing seeds from wet waste.
She stated there was wet waste coming from the kitchen every day; it was used for the compost pit but the odour was unbearable. She came up with this idea of using the wet waste compost to use papers, which can be used as manure; the seeds in the paper grow as new plants.
