1. problem: every year India loses around 30 per cent of food production due to wastage and contamination.
The solution - unique solar-powered cold storage system which works at almost zero running cost. Developed at the Science and Technology entrepreneurship Park (STEP) of IIT-Kharagpur. Existing solar-powered units run on batteries which need to be replaced after 2-3 years making the running cost very high for farmers.


2. problem: 13.3 lakh under-5 children dying annually in india.
solution: Government today launched an action plan -"Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP)" to achieve by 2035 reduction in neonatal mortality rates to 10 or fewer per 1,000 live births and reduction in stillbirth rates to 10 or fewer per 1,000 total births.
