Local Genius, Global Stage: Uppinangady Student’s Creation Wows Japan

Abdul Basith, a student of Government Model Higher Primary School, Uppinangady, has been selected to represent India at the prestigious Sakura Science Fair in Japan. It began at the INSPIRE Awards MANAK competition where he showcased a science model to assist special needs people, particularly those who have lost their hands. The innovation, valued as much for its usability and social applicability, earned Basith a spot at the national expo in IIT Delhi and now even a highly sought-after invite to the international platform in Japan.

 

Key Highlights:

 

•⁠  ⁠Basith's model addresses the needs of people with disabilities, demonstrating dedication to inclusive innovation.

 

•⁠  ⁠He is a Class 10 student of Tanveerul Islam Madrasa and General Secretary of SKSBV Tanveerul Islam Madrasa.

 

•⁠  ⁠He has been locally commended for his achievement, and a special felicitation function was organized in his school. He is also proud among his community.

 

•⁠  ⁠Sakura Science Fair provides young scientists such as Basith global exposure to share their work, network, and learn from others around the world.

 

Prospects: Basith's choice not only reflects his innovativeness but also the potential of rural Indian students in the global arena. His presence will likely encourage more young people to study science and innovation and make India a science giant of the world.
