Vecna4, a team of four students from Amity International School Pushp Vihar, has qualified for the national finals of the F1 STEM Racing National Finals.

The team, comprising Arjunveer Chauhan, Avyaan Pratap, Anant Khemka and Shaurya Rawat, has designed and built a race car as part of the competition, which focuses on engineering and motorsport concepts.

In addition to the technical component, the students have conducted workshops for school students and organised LEGO-based car-building sessions for underprivileged children to promote interest in STEM learning.

The team also interacted with Himanshu Jaisinghani at TnT Motors, a partner of Mercedes-Benz India, where they discussed engineering and sustainability in motorsport.

Vecna4 plans to engage with industry professionals and organisations, and continue refining its car design in preparation for the national competition.

“An uneducated Indian is not a free Indian. India’s education system remains trapped in regulations that reward compliance over learning and scarcity over opportunity. The solution to exam leaks, coaching factories and unemployability is not more licensing, but more supply. We need more schools, more colleges, more competition and more education entrepreneurs. A 21st-century education must not only impart knowledge but encourage questioning. India does not need fewer cooks in the kitchen; it needs more cooks, more recipes and fewer bureaucrats guarding empty plates.”

"The larger issue is not political but intellectual. No serious scholar argues that Indian Knowledge Systems begin and end with Sanskrit; rather, Sanskrit served as a connective layer linking diverse philosophical, spiritual and regional traditions. While historical exclusions must be acknowledged, the answer is wider access to knowledge, not rejection of inherited traditions. India’s deeper challenge is the rupture colonial education inflicted on its knowledge culture and the tendency to separate Sanskrit from the living traditions around it. The IKS movement is not a triumphalist celebration of the past but a serious effort to rediscover, debate and revive India’s knowledge traditions, despite the inevitable exaggerations and political appropriations that accompany such a process."
