| contents | In both rural and urban educational settings, science education is often hindered by limited access to lab resources and intimidating, complex instruments. This paper introduces a low-cost, homemade experimental apparatus built using a mobile charger, nichrome wire, galvanometer, and digital multimeter that enables educators to perform key higher secondary electricity experiments. The Indigenous Metre Bridge (IMB) has proven to be an intuitive, user-friendly tool that not only bridges theoretical and practical learning but also reduces student apprehension toward lab work. Its simplicity and accessibility exemplify how frugal innovation can transform physics education. |
