Exploring this concept especially for the technologically related innovations in rural India, we have come across number of examples where application of Jugaad has fruitfully yielded positive results. Apart from documenting these results thesis work identifies two problems related with e-waste management and with renewable resource of standalone electric generation are addressed to and solved for. While e-waste management finally focusing on extracting the useful components and materials for repair and maintenance and for students projects at undergraduate and post graduate level, the problem of renewable electric production is solved by making use of cattle driven power generator. | en |
