“Today’s India does not wait for innovation; it innovates and implements…” – Key remarks by the PM at ESTIC.

Prime Minister Modi attended the ‘Emerging Science, Technology, and Innovation Conclave’ (ESTIC) held in New Delhi on Tuesday, where he shared his thoughts on science and technology. The PM noted that today, we reach Mars on our very first attempt, and we have successfully landed at the lunar south pole—a feat no one else has achieved. In the past, when an innovation emerged elsewhere in the world, it would take years for that technology to reach us; we would then adopt it or refine it further. But today, 21st-century India is moving forward with a new mindset and a renewed sense of self-confidence.
