Modi Promises Increased Resources to Boost India's Scientific Capability
In September 2024, Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured India's scientists at the Anusandhan National Research Foundation's first Governing Board meeting that resources would no longer be limited, signaling a shift from frugality to building national technological capability. This change responds to challenges like the recent resignation of over 100 experienced ISRO scientists, highlighting the need to support innovation in sectors such as space, defence, AI, and semiconductors. The focus now includes backing talent, fostering long-term domestic R&D investment, and strengthening India's global standing.
