DBT STAR COLLEGE SCHEME

Department of Biotechnology(DBT), Govt of India has initiated a "Star College Scheme" to support colleges and universities to improve science teaching in undergraduate curriculum. The main aim of the programme is to improve the skills of teachers and to provide adequate facilities for practical training to students by providing special instruments and consumables with the help of faculty training programs and improved curriculum. In 2020 DBT under Star College Scheme has sanctioned a sum of Rs. 82 Lakhs for 3 years for strengthening of four departments. i.e., Botany, Chemistry, Physics and Zoology.

In his speech, he mentioned about The long life of LED bulb which is due to the way they generate light and due to the low heat levels. Because of their high lumen output per watt, around 70% of their energy is turned into light which makes them much more efficient that other bulbs. They are also capable of emitting an extremely high level of brightness. Even without the use of gels or filters, LED are capable of producing wide range of colours. Since LED bulbs generate electromagnetic energy as light when electrified, they produce less heat. They are highly reliable.
