    History and Objective of National Technology Day

    We can all agree that technical innovations are among the greatest achievements of humanity. It has unquestionably made our lives easier, more efficient, and more productive, for which we are eternally grateful.

    In 1999, the people of India expressed their gratitude by declaring May 11 as National Technology Day, following their significant achievements in the sector on that day the year before.

    Under Operation Shakti, the government successfully conducted three nuclear tests on May 11, 1998 at the Indian Army’s Pokhran Test Range. On May 13, under the leadership of late President Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, India conducted two further nuclear tests, thus establishing India as a member of the privileged club of nuclear power nations.

    However, India’s Defence Research and Development Organization did not stop there. They also tested their first indigenous aircraft, the Hansa-3, and successfully test fired the Trishul missile on the same day.

    On May 11, 1999, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the Prime Minister at the time, declared May 11 to be a day of major achievement for the country, and National Technology Day was marked for the first time. Since then, the Technology Development Board has recognized scientists and engineers for technological breakthroughs that have aided India’s development.

    National Technology Day 2025 Theme 

    The theme for National Technology Day 2025, “Empowering a Sustainable Tomorrow Through Innovation,” reflects India’s forward-looking vision of using technology not just for growth, but for sustainable and inclusive development. This theme emphasizes the need to harness science, research, and innovation to address pressing global challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and environmental degradation. It highlights the pivotal role that technological advancements play in transforming sectors like agriculture, healthcare, transportation, and energy into more sustainable, eco-friendly, and efficient systems. With growing concerns about global warming and biodiversity loss, the theme calls on innovators, scientists, startups, and industry leaders to create solutions that minimize environmental impact while improving the quality of life for all citizens.
