Describing innovation as a "game-changer", Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Tuesday called for devising a model to address pressing needs like poverty eradication, development of agriculture and green energy that benefits common people.
"Innovation has a critical role to play in India's socio-economic processes and development," Manmohan Singh said after releasing the report of the National Innovation Council for the last year. He also launched a portal that will serve as an information repository for innovations in the county.
It's only through creativity and innovation, solutions that are appropriate to India's conditions that we can achieve development, the prime minister said.
Innovation is a truly a game-changer, Manmohan Singh said while adding that it will enable the country to move from "incremental change to radical change".
