Speech on National Science Day (28th February)
Good morning everyone,
Today, we gather to celebrate National Science Day, observed every year on 28th February in India. This day marks the discovery of the Raman Effect by the great Indian physicist Sir C.V. Raman in 1928, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930. His discovery revolutionized the understanding of light scattering and remains a cornerstone of modern physics.
Science plays a vital role in our daily lives. From the technology we use to the medicines that save lives, everything is rooted in scientific advancements. The theme for National Science Day each year highlights the importance of innovation and research in shaping our future.
As students and young minds, it is our duty to embrace curiosity, ask questions, and seek solutions to global challenges. Science is not just about laboratories; it is about thinking critically and making a difference in society.
Let us take inspiration from great scientists like C.V. Raman, A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, and Homi Bhabha and contribute to the progress of our nation through science and technology.
Thank you!
