National Technology Day- History
Every year on May 11th, India observes National Technology Day to honour India's successful nuclear test in Pokhran, Rajasthan, in 1998. On May 11, 1998, India conducted a series of five nuclear tests, code-named Pokhran-II, in the Pokhran test range in Rajasthan. The Indian government declared May 11th as National Technology Day to honour the scientists and engineers who conducted the nuclear tests and to celebrate India’s technological advancements.
These tests included a thermonuclear device, also known as a hydrogen bomb, which was detonated for the first time in India’s history. The successful tests made India a nuclear power, and the country joined the elite group of nations possessing nuclear weapons.
The Indian government designated National Technology Day in honour of the scientists and engineers who helped the nuclear testing succeed. The day also celebrates India’s technological advancements in various fields, including space research, defense technology, agriculture, healthcare, and communication. Since then, National Technology Day is observed annually to promote the growth and development of science and technology in India.
