"Priority to Research and Innovation": Bhuse
Bhuse assured that the new system would prioritise research, nurturing a scientific mindset among students.
“An education system that encourages research and innovation will be developed. Additionally, new and creative initiatives will also be implemented,” he stated.
Bhuse conducted a comprehensive review of Balbharati’s functioning and directed officials to explore ways to distribute textbooks directly to the taluka level. He further instructed that Balbharati’s operations be entirely computer-based to align with modern technological advancements.
