Scientists Should Help Poor Address Problems: KTR

The Indian scientific community is largely elitist, and in the seven decades of independence has not contributed significantly to the home-grown issues of the nation, IT Minister KT Rama Rao said.

Speaking at the induction ceremony for new fellows and presentation of Young Scientist Awards-2017 organised by Telangana Academy of Sciences (TAS), the Minister said that scientists must take upon themselves the responsibility to alleviate the problems of the poor.
