To innovate, there should be a problem, a need or an opportunity clearly understood. Samasya Khoj is a national contest to nurture the habit of observation and problem definition. The contest is just on the problem description, not solving it. Intent is that repeated practice of identifying and narrating problems accelerates the opportunity for useful innovation. Problem definition includes a few parameters like where it happens, number of people affected, frequency of occurrence, whether there is a life threat, etc. This contest is intended to run every often for frequent attempts. Good efforts are encouraged with Mementos, Certificates, and Cash Awards.
