Sir,
Just to honor the greatness of science, we celebrated National Science Day with a mission that someday we eradicate the taboos and accept that nature is all about science and science is all about nature.
Science brings about solutions for everyday problems and provides answers to the greatest mysteries of the universe. In other words, science is one of the most important channels of knowledge. It has a specific role, as well as a variety of functions for the benefit of our society: creating new knowledge, improving education and increasing the quality of our lives. A country can evolve thanks to scientists who find new approaches to problems and prove new scientific laws. In this regard, National Science Day is celebrated every year on 28 February to mark the discovery of the ‘Raman Effect’ by Sir C.V. Raman on 28 February 1928.
The main purpose of celebrating National Science Day is to spread the message of importance of science and its application among the people. National science day is celebrated as one of the main science festivals in India every year with following purpose-
To widely spread a message about the significance of scientific applications in the daily life of the people,
To display all the activities, efforts and achievements in the field of science for welfare of human being,
To discuss all the issues and implement new technologies for the development of the science,
To give an opportunity to the scientific minded citizens in the country,
To encourage the people as well as popularize the Science and Technology.
Life without science is a waste! Do miracles happen? It would be another part of the decision, but if you believe in science, you will always think about the logic behind you.
