contemplated :
» Provide literature, posters, books,
infographics, slides, audio cassettes, video
clips and any other material explaining the
fundamental principles of science to schools/individuals
free of cost.
» Invite eminent scientists to give
lectures on various fields of science and
to answer question that may come up at the
end of the session.
» Publish braille version of scientific
articles and book for the blind yet inquisitive
members of our society who need not be denied
the benefits of NVSF’s activities.
» Create necessary infrastructure for
scientific experimentation, skywatching, environmental
studies, visits to scientific and research
establishments etc.
» Buy or receive as donation and distribute
instruments/gadgets that explain underlying
principles of science and also facilitate
experimentation individually or at school
level.
» Arrange exhibitions, film/video shows
and other programs to prompt and promote science-learning
at the community level.
The activities enumerated above will be absolutely
cost-free to the students and schools or other
