Pinarayi inaugurates Young Innovators Programme organised under the aegis of K-DISC
Kerala’s ambition of transforming itself into a knowledge society hinged on nurturing a culture of innovation among the youth, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said.
Mr. Vijayan was formally inaugurating the fourth edition of the Young Innovators Programme (YIP), organised under the aegis of Kerala Development and Innovation Strategic Council (K-DISC), here on Thursday.
The State could develop only when youngsters played an active role in developing innovative solutions to everyday problems in society, he said.
Bengaluru saw one of its worst water crises in 2024 with ground water drying up and several parts of the city scrambling for water.
