A POEM ON INDIA’S DEVELOPMENT IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
I am proud to be an Indian,
My country is one in million,
There was a time when India was left with nothing,
But today, it’s flourishing like anything,
Whether it’s in the field of science, medicine, or agriculture,
India is improving years by years in its infrastructure,
April 19, 1975, was India’s remarkable day
India’s satellite Aryabhata was on its way,
The mission proved to be a failure,
But this didn’t change scientist’s behavior,
Bhaskara-1 in 1979 was launched in space,
And it added into India’s grace,
‘Sare Jahan Se Acha’, Rakesh Sharma exclaimed,
When P.M. asked how did our India look from the space,
In 2008, we were ready to explore the beauty of the moon,
Chandaryaan-1 was ready to set off soon,
How could red planet stays away from the sight,
Mangalyaan was ready to set its flight,
Technology plays its role in every part,
How can it leaves the skies and sees apart,
The defence was the major part of the priority,
We can’t play with our country’s security,
The sky for Indian fighter planes was limitless,
And wolves of sea INS ARIHANT were fearless,
India alarmed the world’s community,
When she got success in ‘Operation Shakti’,
Our doctor’s also made us proud,
When they were busy in the experiments throughout,
In 1978, the birth of Durga a the test-tube baby was a mystery,
Later in 2005, it claimed to be a history,
DNA fingerprinting, a new kind of identification,
Because it gives persons clarification,
The Supreme power of the computer was produced,
When supercomputer PARAM was introduced,
It had been through ages,
India was going through these stages,
We can see the magic of science and technology in our day to day life,
Without it we are unable to, survive,
From the refrigerator to microwave from fan to A.C,
Everywhere is science and technology as far we can see,
It has made our life easy and nice,
Now we do each and everything in precise,
I am lucky to witness India’s development,
And I salute every Indian on their achievements.
