The Department of Science and Technology (DST) in India, nestled within the Ministry of Science and Technology, came into being back in May 1971 with a noble mission: to usher in new realms of science and technology while serving as a central hub for orchestrating, aligning, and championing scientific and technological endeavors across the nation. DST extends financial support to a myriad of approved scientific projects within India, empowering researchers to delve into uncharted territories. Additionally, it lends a helping hand to scholars, enabling them to attend international conferences and embark on experimental pursuits abroad.
