Frequent Power cuts and load-shedding made Aasis Vinayak P.G,a plus one student at the SDA English medium school in pathanamthitta,think of a different' water drawing system .

He thought of "a machine that could pump the trailrace wateres of the hydro-electric projects back to the reservoir by using natural forces that would not disturb the equillibrium of nature."

And it worked .His innovative thinking led to the invention of a unique water pump ,which he named 'Vinayak's Hydel System' (VHS),based on a new theory.

He made the news.Rashtrapathi Bhavan sources contacted the youngster and the National Innovation Foundation (NIF),Ahmedabad,offered him help to file a patent on his behalf in india and abroad.

The NIF has approved Aasis's new theory and has already signed a Non-Dislosure Agreement with him to make two additional VHS models at the Indian Institute of Technology in Chennai and Guwahati

NIF invited him for the third round of the Innovation Award ceremony,which ill be held in Ahemadabad on december-10.The cheif guest will be the President,A.P.J Abdul Kalam.

The new machine works on gravitational force and atmospheric pressure.Aasis contacted NASA and conveyed his idea through the Internet.Within a few days ,he got an encouraging e-mail from Herbert Kroemer,Nobel Physics laureate.

Dr.Kroemer wrote,"The principle behind the machine can solve the present energy crisis.So you get even the Nobel Prize.Then you will be the youngest person to be awarded a Nobel Prize"

'Vinayakan effect':- In the new system ,the phenomenon by which the piston moves automatically has been called the 'Vinayakan Effect'

According to him, the system can pump 1000 litres of water to a height of eight meters by working the APWARD for just two seconds.It has a power of 10watts(less than that of a zero-watt bulb).So the total energy required by the system is only 20 joule,he says.

According to Aasis ,the technology can be developed for wider applications in various projects like Veeranam Project in Tamilnadu and the there will be no need for interlinking of riveres.

Aasis is the only son of B.Prafullachandran Pillai,Malayalam lecturer at the Pathanamthtta Catholicate College,and P Geetha,a high school teacher.
