As part of the National Science Day celebrations, the Raman Research Institute (RRI) organised an Open Day on February 28, 2025.
Over a thousand students, from both government and private schools and colleges, participated in the Institute’s celebrations. Science enthusiasts also witnessed the Institute’s ongoing science and research activities through the numerous experiments, hands-on science activities, science models and exhibits and other demonstrations.
Sir C.V. Raman founded the RRI, a premier research Institution in India, in 1948 to pursue cutting-edge fundamental research in select frontier areas of physics under contemporary research themes. Currently, RRI’s thrust research areas cover astronomy and astrophysics, light and matter physics, soft condensed matter and theoretical physics.
Every year, the National Science Day is celebrated across India on February 28 to commemorate the discovery of the Raman Effect by physicist C.V. Raman on February 28, 1928, for which he received the Nobel prize.
