ARIIA is an initiative of the Ministry of Education to systematically rank higher education institutions and universities on indicators related to innovation. The ranking is done in six categories -- centrally-funded institutes of national importance, state-funded universities, state-funded autonomous institutions, deemed universities, private institutions, and women only higher educational institutions. In the first category, IISc Bangalore and IIT Kharagpur have bagged the fourth and fifth ranks respectively. Seven IITs have figured in the top 10 list under the category. Institute of Chemical Technology, Maharashtra, has been ranked at the top among state-funded universities, followed by Panjab University and Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University. Among state-funded autonomous institutes, College of Engineering, Pune, has bagged first rank followed by PES College of Engineering, Karnataka and Coimbatore Institute of Technology, Tamil Nadu.

Speaking at the occasion, Union Minister of Education Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank' mentioned that the ranking is named after former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. "Under his leadership, India took many leaps in the field of Innovation. ARIIA gives us a reflection of our efforts and provides us with a reason to celebrate our achievements. A National Research Foundation (NRF) will be set up for invigorating innovation and research under recently released Nation Education Policy (NEP)," he said. The minister said this year, the category of women only higher educational institutions was introduced to encourage women and bringing gender parity in the areas of innovation and entrepreneurship. Avinashilingam Institute for Home Science and Higher Education for Women bagged the top prize in the category. Releasing the ranking, Vice President Venkaiah Naidu said, "Innovation has always been key defining feature of human progress. India has its own illustrious history of innovations spanning at least 20 centuries right from the invention of 'zero' and the decimal system. India was known as the 'vishwa guru'. We must regain that intellectual leadership, we must again emerge as a global hub of learning and innovation." "We have highly talented youths brimming with new ideas, with a passion for implementation and willingness to forge a new path. The youth will define our country's future. They need encouragement, facilitation and recognition, they must be given needed guidance and freedom to explore new frontiers," Naidu added.

The elusive 'God particle' discovered by scientists in 2012 has always been hogging limelight for one reason or the other. Scientists at <keyword id="6624175" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Cern">CERN</keyword>, a European research organisation, found the Higgs Boson while conducting the Compact Muon Solenoid (<keyword id="15615" type="CITY" weightage="60" keywordseo="cms">CMS</keyword>) experiment, which is part of the Large Hadron Collider. CERN is expected to re-collect data around March 2015, and this time the team will onboard another member from India—IIT-Madras that is. 
 
CERN has collaborated with IIT-Madras to solve the mystery of the Gods particle, and the India’s premier education institute is aiming to make the best use of this wonderful opportunity. 
 
Experts believe that the latest move will help students to excel in the field of Physics. Numerous PhD students from the Physics department will get to work in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator. 
 
On the other hand, members of various departments, which include physics, computer science and electrical engineering, at IIT-M can sharpen their skills by conducting experiments on data analysis, grid computing and high-end detector building. 
 
“Being connected to CERN can give many more students a taste of the power of fundamental research,” said Prafulla Kumar Behera of the physics department of IIT-Madras, pointing out that this is the first IIT and, in fact, the first institute from the southern States to have become a full member of the CMS. 
 It is important to note that Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, and <keyword id="71684" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="Bhabha-Atomic-Research-Centre">Bhabha Atomic Research Centre</keyword>, Delhi and Panjab Universities have long been members of the CMS.
