Ananya Jain, a student of Carmel Convent School in
Chandigarh has won the
prestigious IGNITE 14 award. IGNITE is a national competition of original
technological ideas and innovations of school children instituted by the National
Innovation Foundation - India (NIF). Ananya was conferred this award by Former
President Honourable Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam on 19th November at a ceremony
held at Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad. Ananya’s award winning project
was based on the idea that excreta of cockroaches contains nitrogen essential
for the growth of leguminous plants, and hence can be used as fertilizers
instead of the conventional environment degrading chemicals. Speaking about the
inspiration behind her project, Ananya said, “I came up with the idea since many of my friends complained of cockroaches in their houses. This led me to think if I could turn these ‘pests’
into something useful for humans.”
