In a span of six decades since India’s first Science Policy
Resolution,1958, well-crafted STI policies have played a major role in helping
the nation build a robust STI ecosystem and emerge as a leader in several
branches of science, technology and innovation. India is constantly evolving and
adapting to the changing national and international dynamics. The current
pandemic catalysed the need for a new policy instrument that amalgamates
profound and incremental approaches to prioritise and strategise across the STI
landscape. Hence, the government of India (GOI) initiated the consultation
process for India’s 5th STI Policy named as the Science, Technology and
Innovation policy 2020 (STIP 2020). This policy aims to be truly evidencedriven, inclusive and bottom-up while encouraging stakeholder interaction at all
levels. This quiz thus attempts to encourage public participation and awareness
of the STI ecosystem. The participants will be quizzed on several aspects of
S&T, in terms of India’s achievements, latest trends and policy interventions in
this regard.
