As February 28 happens to be the National Science Day also and the day is dedicated to the discovery of ‘Raman Effect’ by Dr C. V. Raman, Prime Minister Modi wanted the youth to know, understand and read a lot about the history of science of India and about the counry's scientists as well.
Dwelling upon the contribution of the power of science in the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat Campaign’, he said: ``We have to move science forward with the mantra of ‘Lab to Land’ and cited example of Chintala Venkat Reddy from Hyderabad who developed breeds of wheat and rice that specially contained vitamin D and only this month he received patent from World Intellectual Property Organization, Geneva. ``Our Government is fortunate that Venkat Reddy was also honoured with the Padmashree last year,'' he said.
``Similarly, Urugen Futsog of Ladakh too is working very innovatively. At those heights Urugen is growing about 20 crops organically, that too in a cyclic way, that is, he utilises the waste of one crop as manure for the other crop. Isnt’ it amazing? In the same way Kamraj Bhai Choudhary from Patan district in Gujarat has developed good seeds of drum stick at home itself,'' he said while citing other individual efforts from U.P and Tamil Nadu as well.
