Learning to create culture of celebrating innovations
Abstract:
Indian society has a great penchant for celebrations. There
are rituals for celebrating seasonal changes, harvesting of
crops, stages in life, festivals for all reasons and of course
victories small and big, recent or eons ago. And in the midst
of all festivities, when did we learn to celebrate innovations.
Honourable President of India by starting a Festival of
Innovations (FOIN) at Rashtrapati Bhavan has created a new
ritual, a new idiom of festivities, a new reason for celebration.
But will it percolate down to every town, village, school,
college, industry or enterprise?
