The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) is planning to establish an interactive science exhibition at the Science Park in Sector 19-A, Nerul, with an estimated budget of ₹105 crore. This new facility aims to provide a platform for school students and residents to learn about various scientific fields through hands-on experiences and visual demonstrations.
The proposed exhibition will cover topics like energy, environment, space, machinery, robotics, and other scientific subjects. It is designed to help visitors understand complex scientific concepts through practical demonstrations and visual displays, rather than just through traditional textbooks.
For this project, the NMMC has allocated a budget of ₹105 crore, which will be used for manufacturing, supplying, installing, and commissioning the exhibits, along with necessary internal civil works. A proposal for financial approval has already been submitted to the Standing Committee for review.
The Science Park development is being carried out in two phases. The first phase, which is nearing completion, will lay the groundwork for the upcoming science exhibition. The second phase will focus on setting up the interactive exhibition, including visual representations, various exhibits, documentaries, and practical demonstrations. This phase will extend beyond just installing scientific equipment to creating an engaging and educational environment.
The concept of the Science Park was finalized after taking inputs from experts from renowned institutions like the Nehru Science Centre, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), and IIT Bombay. An expert committee consisting of specialists from these institutions guided the project. Based on the committee's recommendations, the Science Park works were divided into two parts, leading to the detailed budgeting and quotation process.
The NMMC invites agencies with experience in executing similar projects to submit their quotations, which will then be evaluated to finalize the estimated cost of the proposed works. This approach ensures that the project is executed efficiently and effectively, providing a valuable educational resource for the residents of Navi Mumbai.
