Vedic maths, Kautilya's Arthashastra to be included in IIIT-A's minor course
Prayagraj: The Indian Institute of Information Technology Allahabad (IIIT A) has introduced a new minor course, 'Indian Knowledge System', in BTech with the aim of connecting India's rich educational and cultural heritage to the higher education system. A minor course in BTech is a focused area of study within a different engineering or non-engineering discipline, taken in addition to the student's major. It allows students to gain additional knowledge and skills in a specific field, complementing their primary BTech degree. Essentially, it's a specialisation within a field outside of the student's main major. The institute has taken the initiative for the session 2025-26 under the new education policy. In the new course, students will study the history of Indian civilization in the third semester, Vedic mathematics in the fourth semester, Kautilya's economics in the fifth semester, Panin's grammar in the sixth semester and linguistics and ancient Indian architecture in the seventh semester. On selecting this minor, students will earn a total of 15 points at the rate of three credit points in each semester. It will start from the third semester and taught until the seventh semester. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo The structure of the course will be such that students will be able to learn Vedic mathematics formulas, numerical methods, reasoning and fast calculation techniques. On the other hand, subjects like governance, diplomacy, finance management and strategic thinking will be understood in depth through Kautilya's arthashastra (economics). "In a world where computers are based on mathematical algorithms, the Vedic mathematics course was introduced to speed up calculations. This increases the thinking ability of students. It is our ancient language, and students can learn it easily," said dean academic (IIIT-A), Manish Goswami. Each course is worth a certain number of credit points, which is determined by various criteria including student workload, learning outcomes, and contact hours. Usually, the more work and effort a student puts into a course, the more credits that course has. On passing the course, the student gets full credit points, and on failing, zero.

‘All clearances in place for artificial rain pilot'
New Delhi: Environment minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa on Wednesday said the artificial rain pilot is ready for execution, with all scientific systems and clearances in place. He mentioned that the cloud seeding flights will commence when suitable weather conditions—especially cloud moisture and depth—are observed over targeted zones. "All preparations are complete except for a few minor operational clearances. Now, we're just waiting for the right clouds to appear. The moment the weather cooperates, Delhi will witness its first artificial rain. This is a national-first experiment rooted in science, executed with military-grade precision, and evaluated in real time," Sirsa said. India Meteorological Department has confirmed cloud feasibility and will provide real-time data on cloud type, altitude, wind conditions, and dew point to aid planning. As the pilot project will be executed in collaboration with IIT-Kanpur, the institute will deploy specially equipped Cessna aircraft with flare-based seeding systems using a proprietary formulation made of Silver Iodide nanoparticles, iodised salt, and rock salt. A maximum of five sorties are planned, with each flight covering 100 sq km and lasting at least 1 hour and 30 minutes over non-sensitive zones of northwest and outer Delhi. "Flights will avoid restricted airspace such as VIP-89 (Rashtrapati Bhawan, Parliament, PM residence), as per standard aviation protocol. However, real-time impact on air quality (PM2.5 and PM10) will be measured using Continuous Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations (CAAQMS) placed in and around the seeding zones," Sirsa added. TNN
