The title, "Indigenous Technologies for Viksit Bharat," encapsulates India's stride towards technological advancement, aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision for a $5 trillion economy. The technological advancement goals span infrastructure, engineering, biotechnology, climate control, and semiconductor chip manufacturing, addressing socio-economic and SDG objectives. Our focus areas include drug discovery, green chemistry, and fostering scientific curiosity among schoolchildren. Government support, particularly during the pandemic, has spurred innovations in vaccine development and disease detection tools. Chemistry and biotechnology institutions like NIPER and IISER are pivotal in driving progress, especially in remote regions, the northeast and other backward states. Aligning with PM's goals, Sisco Research Laboratories (SRL) is targeting essential reagents and chemicals for chip fabrication, vaccine production, biosimilars, and chemical synthesis and analysis.
