National Science Day is observed every year on February 28th in India to honor the discovery of the Raman effect by Sir CV Raman. This day is celebrated to highlight the importance of science and its significant role in our daily lives.

The Raman effect, which won Raman the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930, is a phenomenon in spectroscopy where light interacts with matter to shift its energy. This discovery has had a profound impact on various fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology. On this National Science Day 2025, educational institutions, research organizations, and scientific communities across the country are organizing events, seminars, and exhibitions to promote scientific temper and innovation among students and the general public.

National Science Day 2025 is a reminder of the remarkable contributions of Sir CV Raman and a celebration of India’s rich scientific heritage. It serves as a platform to inspire the younger generation to take an interest in science and pursue careers in scientific research and innovation. Let us all take this day as an opportunity to appreciate the importance of science in our lives and work towards a more scientifically literate society.
