How does the Science empower the nation?
Answers
Science is the real power. Scientific advancement is the hallmark of an advanced nation. Countries that are scientifically more advanced have more power. For example, America, Is considered as the leader of the world. Its policies affect the entire world. Hardly any other country dares to oppose its policies. Why is it so? For the simple reason that it is scientifically far ahead! NASA, Microsoft, Apple, Coke, Pepsi, McDonald, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, etc, all are indicators of its scientific strength. Its military uses most advanced hardware and software equipment. It has more advanced technological edge. So any country that wishes to be powerful, must focus on developing science in all areas. Developing scientific attitude among Indians is one of the educational objectives of the Indian Government's policies. So if India is to become powerful, it is possible through science only. Dr. Kalam, Himself was a great scientist. He empowered India by giving India many potent missiles such as, Akash, Agni, Prithvi,etc. He could make those missiles only through the power of science.
