Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled three PARAM Rudra supercomputers constructed in-house under the National Supercomputing Mission on Thursday, claiming that India is creating new chances under a limitless sky of possibilities.
These supercomputers, which cost Rs 130 crore to build, have been deployed in Pune, Delhi, and Kolkata to support pioneering scientific research, according to Modi, who addressed scientists and others via video conference.
Modi also inaugurated the Rs 850 crore High-Performance Computing system tailored for weather and climate research, and described the day as one of a “very big achievement” in science and technology sector.
“There is no sector which does not rely on technology and computing capability,” Modi said. “In this revolution, our share should not be in bits and bytes but in terabytes and petabytes. Therefore, this achievement proves that we are moving in the right direction at the right pace,” he said.
The significance of science is not only in invention and development, but also in fulfilling aspirations of the last person, Modi said.
