About 700 students are expected to participate in INSPIRE district-level exhibitions and competitions from Warangal, Nalgonda and Khammam districts.
Innovation in Science Pursuit for Inspired Research (INSPIRE) is a national programme implemented by the Ministry of Science and Technology for attracting talent among students to study science and pursue career with research.
Warangal District Educational Officer P. Rajeev said the district-level exhibitions and project competitions (DLEPC) would be held at two places.
In these competitions which would begin on September 22, students from Warangal, Nalgonda and Khammam districts and INSPIRE awardees of 2015-2016 can display their models.
