The Scientific Review Committee (SRC) will evaluate the synopses. The scientists from various IITs (Indian Institute of Technology) Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), and Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) etc. are part of the SRC. The SRC reviews all the synopses received for participation and selects the most promising ones. Short-listed synopses will be invited to participate at the National Fair.
