India has a glorious tradition of scientific development. The Indian Science Congress has played a pivotal role in nurturing and furthering this tradition. Nobel Laureate Dr. Ada Yonath  appealed all to  take this glorious tradition ahead.

The 108th Indian Science Congress organised at Rashtrasant Tukdoji Maharaj Nagpur University concluded today. Ada Yonath was the chief guest for the Valedictory Function. The ceremony was held at the main venue. The President of the Indian Science Congress, Dr Vijayalakshmi Saxena, Vice Chancellor Dr Subhash Chaudhari, Divisional Commissioner, Nagpur Dr Vijayalakshmi Bidri and the newly elected President of the Indian Science Congress - Dr Arvind Saxena were present on the occasion.

In her speech, Yonath said, she has continued her scientific research even after two decades of being awarded the Nobel Prize. According to her, a researcher should never discontinue research work. She said, Indian scientists Dr Tanaya Bose and Dr Venkatraman Ramkrishnan helped her in the research. "I have always had high regards for Indian scientists. My guide Dr Ramchandran was an Indian scientist. He introduced me to the rich traditions followed by Indian scientists. The 108th Indian Science Congress has been extremely crucial in taking the glorious traditions ahead. Let's take the same to new heights", she appealed to the Ministry of Science and Technology.

Dr Vijayalakshmi Bidri said, "This national level event organised at Nagpur has been of great importance in boosting scientific temperament and love for science in the society."
