How can I use science for the future development of our country

Human civilization is now growing at a fast rate. This growth is

fueled by nothing but science. Science now became the pillars of our

development and humans are even capable of putting things on other planets

which are millions of kilometres away from us.

In this scenario the major discussion is to exploit the scope of science

for development of mankind. Newer and newer technologies are now being

developed by different nations which is considered as an index of there

development. Yes, truly it is an index of the development and can put the

nation into an even higher orbit as compared to others.

For a country like India, it is important to develop new technologies

which will in turn help in the overall development of our country. Our

country is among the top in the world in terms of technological

development. We are some what equal to NASA in space technology, China

in industrial development and overall the most culturally developed country

Our country is effectively using science and technology for the

development of common man. ISRO played a major role in the rescue

operation during Kashmir flood and helped in the early warning of cyclones

and other natural disasters. Also different institutions like ICAR etc helped

in developing the agricultural sector in India which supported India to grow

as a great agrarian economy.

In future our plan should be focused on using our scientific

capabilities to impart education to rural population, to introduce tele

medicine, development of regional navigation system, improving health

facilities, agricultural development, commerce etc,

Tele education, which is very helpful for rural education should be

given high preference and should be introduced in every village in our

country. Giving education to our population can only trigger our countries

development. An uneducated population is a burden to our country rather

than an asset. Tele education will give hope to millions of young minds in

our country.

Our country is now developing a regional navigation system which

will help the people in a variety of ways. If our countries navigation system

is reaching full potential, then it can be used effectively used for navigation

in places like rural villages, hilly terrains etc, which will otherwise be very

difficult. Air and marine navigation and our army will also be benefited from

this.

Promoting research in field of biotechnology and medicine is also

important for a country. New technology of disease diagnosis and treatment

is providing a high hope for our countries rural population. These

technologies can help in the development of other facilities which will

provide these facilities at a feasible rate for our population.

Since our countrys economy is an agrarian economy, a significant

effort should be made in the development of new technologies for

agricultural development. Indian Council Of Agricultural Research has

played a major role in enabling the country to increase the production of

food grains, horticultural crops, milk production etc. it also successfully

developed pest and disease resistant crop for better yield.

But like other side of a coin technology is misused which became a

sole cause of the destruction of our environment and mankind. Increased

pollution and development of atomic bombs are direct examples of this.

Care must be taken to avoid the misuse of science and technology. Science

should be directed in a proper manner for the wellbeing of mankind.
