Warm wishes on National Technology Day to all scientists, engineers, innovators, and visionaries shaping the future of India. This day stands as a reminder of the historic Pokhran-II nuclear tests, a moment that demonstrated strategic courage, scientific capability, and decisive national leadership. The leadership behind Pokhran proved that technological strength is essential for sovereignty, deterrence, and global respect.
As the world enters an era driven by artificial intelligence, semiconductors, cyber capabilities, aerospace, and advanced defence systems, India must now gear up with greater urgency to compete with global superpowers in technology and innovation. The future will belong to nations that create, innovate, and lead from the front.
