These tools have swiftly evolved from mere buzzwords to essential assets in governance and public service. They empower our engineers to make informed decisions, optimize resource allocation, and enhance security, creating a transparent and efficient society where citizens actively engage in governance.
This Engineer’s Day, we celebrate our government’s unwavering commitment to bolstering research and development, exemplified by initiatives like the Centers of Excellence for AI.

Through these endeavours, we pave the way for a resilient, technology-driven future for India and the interconnected world.
Engineering isn’t just a profession; it’s a covenant between human ingenuity and challenges.
