New Delhi, Aug 13 (NationPress) India's scientific and technological ecosystem is swiftly advancing towards global dominance, as highlighted in a recent report. Transitioning from a minor player on the world stage, India is now at the forefront of innovations such as quantum computing, agricultural technology, space exploration, and clean energy solutions, according to the findings published in India Narrative.

The nation is crafting a future where innovation serves as both a driving force and an export commodity.

A prime illustration of this is the National Supercomputing Mission (NSM) achieving a remarkable 32 PetaFlops.

The Inter-University Accelerator Centre's (IUAC) 3-PetaFlop system holds the capability to tackle challenges in climate modeling and genome sequencing.

Furthermore, the National Quantum Mission (NQM), backed by a budget of Rs 6,003.65 crore, aspires to develop indigenous hardware and algorithms.

In addition, the BharatGen LLM initiative is harnessing Artificial Intelligence to tackle the country's diverse linguistic needs.

This technological evolution is also evident in India's ascent in the Global Innovation Index, now ranking 39th, alongside its position as the 6th in global intellectual property filings. This reflects the vitality of the innovation ecosystem: patent culture, research and development intensity, and investor confidence, according to the report.

Moreover, the forthcoming Gaganyaan human spaceflight program and the recently launched NISAR satellite, designed for high-resolution Earth observations, underscore India's capabilities in the space arena.

Looking ahead, the proposed Bharatiya Antariksh Station by 2035 and the ambition of lunar landings by 2040 suggest that India's space strategy is evolving from reactive to generational. If the past decade was about establishing capabilities, the next will focus on shaping the framework of global space governance, the report elaborated.

Simultaneously, with over 70% of Indian farms expected to adopt bio-enhanced seeds, the narrative around agricultural technology is also transformative. This shift is anticipated to significantly impact food security and climate resilience.

Furthermore, approximately 40% of farms have embraced precision agriculture, resulting in up to 25% higher yields while using 20-30% less water and fertilizers, the report detailed.

India has also made substantial strides in geospatial sciences, training over 6,000 students in spatial reasoning across seven states. This initiative is paving the way for mapping, data visualization, and environmental modeling to become essential skills, crucial for disaster preparedness and urban planning, the report concluded.
