My address at the 2nd Foundation Day of 'Anusandhan' National Research Foundation': Key Takeaways: "India’s research ecosystem is entering a decisive new phase, with the 'Anusandhan' National Research Foundation #ANRF emerging as a catalyst for globally aligned, mission-driven, partnership-based research and innovation. ANRF sets course for India’s innovation-led journey to 2047, strengthening R&D driven economic growth. It is a rare institutional reform shaped through sustained deliberations and wide-ranging consultations; designed after studying global research models while creating a framework suited to India’s scientific, social, and cultural context. Post-pandemic world has renewed international interest in indigenous knowledge systems. India is, therefore, uniquely positioned to contribute original research perspectives, including in areas where traditional knowledge complements modern science. ANRF differs from conventional research funding agencies, by being a fund generating enabler. It emphasises collaboration across disciplines and sectors, including the non-government sector. Early response to the Foundation’s programmes, particularly the strong participation from the private sector, signals a gradual shift in India’s research culture and mindset from silos to outcome-oriented collaboration".

Addressed Annual Atal Innovation Incubator Conclave "AIM SUMVAAD" at Ambedkar International Centre, New Delhi. Linked "Atal Innovation Mission" with the @narendramodi government's thrust on innovation led growth and scalable #StartUps. Significantly, the Budget 2026–27 also gives momentum to Startups and women-centric entrepreneurship or Self Help Entrepreneurs (SHE), with focus on 'ease of doing business'. India’s Startup count jumps from 350 to over 2 Lakh as Biomanufacturing emerges as a new growth engine in the Budget narrative.

To promote #Astrophysics & #Astronomy, four Telescope infrastructure facilities will be set up or upgraded - National Large Solar Telescope, National Large Infrared Optical Telescope, Himalayan Chandra Telescope and Cosmos-2 planetarium. -Smt. @nsitharaman #DST, Ministry of Science and Technology #ViksitBharatBudget

To develop India as a global bio-pharma manufacturing hub, I propose Bio Pharma Shakti with an outlay of Rs 10,000 crores over the next 5 years. This will build an ecosystem for the domestic production of biologics and biosimilars. -Smt. @nsitharaman #DBT, Ministry of Science and Technology #ViksitBharatBudget
