New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished the nation on Sunday on the occasion of the National Technology Day and expressed his gratitude to the Indian scientists for the 1998 Pokhran nuclear tests.
The Prime Minister asserted that India is fast emerging as a global leader in various fields, be it space, Artificial Intelligence, green technology or research and innovations to secure the nation.
In a post on social media platform X, the Prime Minister said, "This is a day to express pride and gratitude to our scientists and remember the 1998 Pokhran tests. They were a landmark event in our nation's growth trajectory, especially in our quest towards self-reliance."
He underlined the role of citizens in the march towards big achievements in the field of science and technology.
"Powered by our people, India is emerging as a global leader in different aspects of technology, be it space, AI, digital innovation, green technology and more. We reaffirm our commitment to empowering future generations through science and research. May technology uplift humanity, secure our nation and drive futuristic growth," Modi said.
India had conducted a series of nuclear tests at Pokhran in 1998 when the Atal Bihari Vajpayee-led NDA was in power. In the last few years, a series of policy decisions like opening up the space and defence sector have given an impetus to research and development in these fields and adding to the achievements of the government.
