Why do our biggest public posters belong to politicians, while the scientists building India’s future remain largely unknown?

China has publicly celebrated scientists such as Qian Xuesen, Tu Youyou and Yuan Longping as national icons.

Meanwhile, reports of around 80 scientists leaving ISRO have raised concerns about India’s ability to retain scientific talent. The Department of Space has also reportedly tightened exit rules for scientists working on critical missions, including Gaganyaan.

Bengaluru is at the heart of India’s space ecosystem, yet many people struggle to name even a few scientists behind the country’s major missions.

Political banners, hoardings and cut-outs are everywhere. But where is the same public recognition for the people advancing India’s science and technology?

Maybe it’s time to rethink who deserves our attention, respect and public celebration.

The next generation should know the scientists building India’s future — not only the politicians asking for votes.
