Image or Mathematical equation support in Markdown
As requested by one of the speakers who submitted his proposal:
1. In the markup there's some problem with inputting images. I could not.
2. I could not input equations in the markup for some reason. Since, there was a solid mathematical angle to my proposal I thought it'd be a good idea to put in some equations in there as well.
- In the markup there's some problem with inputting images. I could not.
You can add images like these: 
- I could not input equations in the markup for some reason.
We don't have equation support right now, but this is something to think over. :+1:
@anistark & @palnabarun I would like to work on this issue.
@abhishekmishragithub Please go ahead.
Look into Mathjax. Check if there is integration with Django, and if yes, does it have an active upstream

You can follow this answer for workarounds to resolve this.
As images can be easily embedded in markdown, one can use services like http://www.sciweavers.org/free-online-latex-equation-editor or https://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php or many others available to create image of the equation and embed it.
Other possible way could be to use HTML entity codes to write equations in markdown. Some other resources for this are here for math symbols and here for greek or special letters
Would you like to take this up as well @avats-dev ?
