We Indians take immense pride in a relationship with science that is deeply emotional. It is visible when millions watch a rocket rise from Sriharikota, when collective celebration follows a successful mission, or when our eyes well up as disappointment settles after years of painstaking work do not go as planned.
That emotion is real, shared, and unmistakably Indian. Science has always mattered beyond laboratories. While its jargon may not yet reach every Indian, its impact always does.
In 2025, science touched everyday lives in ways both profound and practical, from farmers using AI-powered weather forecasts to plan sowing, to doctors detecting diseases before symptoms appeared; from engineers testing India’s first homegrown processors to children watching our scientific prowess and dreaming of new heights.
