Vice-President, Jagdeep Dhankhar today called for authentic and practical research that is able to change the ground reality.
Speaking at the Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) R&D Award Ceremony in Bengaluru today, he said, “In global perspective, if you look, our patent contribution leaves much to be desired. When it comes to research, the research has to be authentic. The research has to be cutting edge. The research has to be practical. The research must change the ground reality. There is no use having research which goes a little beyond surface sketching. Your research must correlate with the change you seek to bring about.”
“Authentic research should alone be recognized as research. The one who overlooks research must have stringent standards. The exemplification has to be, if it is recognized at global level, a research paper that has momentary importance of being presented and then goes in the shelf & gathers dust is something we must keep away from. While your track record is extremely impressive. But when the whole nation is in expectation mood, it expects more. We cannot rest our laurels on our past achievements.”
