Mr. Modi stated that scientific advancement genuinely delivers value when it transitions from research environments to enhance the well-being of citizens, address significant challenges, and bolster healthcare, agriculture, education, employment, and disaster preparedness. He further emphasized that over the preceding year, the government has allocated 12 thousand crore rupees to commercially viable laboratory technologies, with an equivalent 12 thousand crore rupees in investment from private sources. He observed that annual patent filings have risen from less than 50,000 a decade ago to almost 1.5 lakh last year, signaling a substantive underlying transformation extending beyond quantitative metrics. Mr. Modi affirmed India's ambition to secure technological independence and cultivate resilience in essential domains.
