NEW DELHI: Delhi government’s ‘Business Blasters’ programme’s fifth episode which aired on December 26, 2021 drew praise from masses. The Sunday episode featured Delhi government school students with their innovative business ideas.
The first team comprising nine students from Class 12 demonstrated a safe kitchen device. This digital device could prevent gas leakage by using an alarm. “Most gas leak preventive alarms available in the market are costly. Our team intends to help with a cost-effective alarm at just Rs 700,” said Aman, the team leader. The team received 40 orders for their device. Currently, they are working on an advanced model of the alarm. The team earned a combined investment of up to Rs 80,000 from investors on the show.
