National Technology Day 2022, observed on May 11, celebrates the achievements and contributions of Indians to science and technology. This day reminds us of India's emergence into the elite group of nuclear-armed nations. On May 11, 1998, India carried out three successful nuclear tests at the Indian Army's Pokhran Test Range in Rajasthan under Operation Shakti. After two days, two other nuclear tests were conducted as part of the same operation on May 13. The tests were led by the late President, Dr APJ Abdul Kalam. National Technology Day was first celebrated on May 11, 1999.
