Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today paid tributes to all the scientists in the country who are using science and technology to bring a positive difference in the lives of others.

Shri Modi was tweeting on the occasion of National Technology Day.

“On National Technology Day, our nation salutes all those who are leveraging technology to bring a positive difference in the lives of others. We remember the exceptional achievement of our scientists on this day in 1998. It was a landmark moment in India’s history”, he said.

Referring to the Pokhran Tests which took place on the 11th of May 1998, Prime Minister said the nuclear tests then were possible only due to a strong political leadership. Prime Minister also shared his quote on the tests, during his one of the MannKiBaat programme.

“The tests in Pokhran in 1998 also showed the difference a strong political leadership can make. Here is what I had said about Pokhran, India’s scientists and Atal Ji’s remarkable leadership during one of the #MannKiBaat programmes,” he said

Shri Modi further tweeted, “Today, technology is helping many in the efforts to make the world free from COVID-19. I salute all those at the forefront of research and innovation on ways to defeat Coronavirus. May we keep harnessing technology, in order to create a healthier and betterplanet”.

“प्रयागराज में एकता का महाकुंभ, करोड़ों देशवासियों के प्रयास से संपन्न हुआ। मैंने एक सेवक की भांति अंतर्मन में संकल्प लिया था कि महाकुंभ के उपरांत द्वादश ज्योतिर्लिंग में से प्रथम ज्योतिर्लिंग श्री सोमनाथ का पूजन-अर्चन करूंगा।

आज सोमनाथ दादा की कृपा से वह संकल्प पूरा हुआ है। मैंने सभी देशवासियों की ओर से एकता के महाकुंभ की सफल सिद्धि को श्री सोमनाथ भगवान के चरणों में समर्पित किया। इस दौरान मैंने हर देशवासी के स्वास्थ्य एवं समृद्धि की कामना भी की।”
