As every region(May be a District, Block) already has the government authority available, just need to reform them. I would like to suggest few things here : 1. All the books should be issued from the school authority only with a very minimal changes as a rent of books. 2. At the end of the year, the student needs to return all the books in considerably good condition else needs to deposit the book's amount. 3. The same book should be reissued to the next batch of students.

There should be a public library in each region where all students who wish to donate books which belong to the classes/professional exams they have passed can be donated. All members of that library should be allowed to use those books. Though this attempt poor children will get access to good books and will help them to get a good education.

Since sanskrit books are less, we can encourage people to write good sanskrit books , moral stories etc and promote across India. Encourage people to read sankrit magazine/books as it is good for brain and export those books also to other countries also possible.

accordingly trended. 11.A press release should be written beforehand. 12.A presentation should be made beforehand. 13.Online giveaways of the book should be there followed by competitions. 14.A review & remedial website of the book should be made. 15.Periodic articles should be allowed. 16.Regular conferences should promoted. 17.Ideas of developed nations should be adopted. 18.The books should be deposited at at least half rates in the schools itself for new students(As happens in U.S).

The views regarding this topic which comes to my mind are- 1.Focussing on discoverability and innovation rather than selling. 2.Accept the resposibility and the deliverables for promotion. 3.Identifying the market. 4.identifying the audience. 5.identifying the budget. 6.Creating a market plan approach. 7.The brand story to be told to the author well in advance and the concept. 8.Should be made easy to buy. 9.The books should be related to relevant topics. 10.The social media should be

NBPP draft has no mention of ebooks or encouraging their use. It would take far less resources to provide a few e-readers per village library and ensure access to a large library of public access works (at a minimum, all good English literature that is out of copyright) - as a bonus, ereaders can change font size which is a blessing for older readers. I'd like to also suggest that these ereaders are manufactured in India with industry partnership rather than using Kindle/Nook that are imported.
