India still has a long way to go as far as the metrics of scientific research such as research papers and patents are concerned. In light of this, examine the various aspect of the draft Science, Technology and Innovation Policy 2020 (STIP2020) as it seeks a new path. 10 marks

In the next part, mention the various aspect of the policy-doubling the full-time equivalent researchers, doubling Gross Domestic Expenditure on R&D every five years, creation of open science framework, strategies that are decentralized, evidence-informed, bottom-up, experts-driven, and inclusive etc.
  • Conclude by mentioning that the draft policy makes the right moves and strikes the right notes to make India future-ready.
