(I got a request from assistant of a senior Gujarat leader that he wanted some important points wrt science \ tech in Gujarat ; My response )
.
1. The most important is that Maths \ Science Education is detoriating in many schools and particularly Municipal Schools. Gujarat Govt must make a system to record where the municipal school students and students from ordinary private schools are lending after 5-10 years after they pass out. We should gather data on --- of the students who passed from Municipal Schools and Govt Schools in years say from 1995 to say 2008 , how of them 
.
(a) took enrollment in class-`12 science
(b) got enrollment in Bsc, Engineering , MBBS etc
.
Same way, Govt should get this information for all other schools.
.

.
2. Gujarat Board should gather information on how many students of Gujarat board are enrolling in IIT , IISc , Engineering , MBBS and compare it with other boards such as CBSE and ICSE.
.
======
.
3. Most important way to improve sciences is ti make factories more and more competitive . And today, biggest problems factories are facing is -- sluggishness in courts. USA has one judge for population of 11,000 , while Gujarat has one judge for population of about 65000 . Gujarat has about 900 lower courts , while it needs at least about 5000 . Increase in number of courts will speed up the cases , will improve efficiency of factory owners will increase. This will increase competition and increase the demand of engineers as well as scientists
.
======
.
4. Gujarat Govt should organize competitions in Maths and Science similar to "Maths Olympiads" . 
.
=====
.
5. Gujarat Govt should print bilingual textbooks i.e. textbooks should be in both languages --- Gujarati and English. The Left page can be in English and the Right page should be its exact translation. This will improve English of students at early age. 
.
These are some of the tasks , that be easily done to promote science and technology in Gujarat .
