It was his mission of making India developed as closed as possible to the world in all spheres of human activity. His youthful energies and dedicated efforts for realizing his vision manifested in several path breaking initiatives. He said development must mean the development of society science and technology have a key role in that development. If we are going to restructure our society it will be only possible if we have substantial achievements in areas of front line technology. The power of technology greatly fascinated him.
