My co- speakers professor mahapatra and My Relations Mr sures sarangi and all my uh listeners those are attending this seminar this conference my topic will be different you hard to all the distinguished to distinguished speakers they spoke very nicely very confidently and to the topic economics and uh its application in social science
My topic will be different since I’m a student of science I am more practical than Theory as you know you heard about what is Kalinga name of the word Kalinga it’s significance and I know I think Professor Francisco must be knowing about this word Kinga because this word inherits from France
Also in the year 19505 1950 the Great Indian architect the maker of modern odisa Buu Babu we call B Babu lovingly we call B Babu is B on the pon visited Paris and he met director general of unco Paris and handed over some money and requested the authorities over

PN it has a great history and great philosophy I’ll go into little deep little deep I’ll take into Science Why such an idea came into B nobody in entire world thought about popularis science everybody thoughts about science bab is the first person in the entire world to think beyond the
Spectrum of science science must reach the common man this philosophy was first fabricated by Babu in the entire world V popularly known in urisa as Babu is known in many many many many many peripheries he is a great industrialist he’s a great politician great science lover many people don’t know that he was
A great science lover that is why he ined this priz as a great science lover and whoever have got the prize has visited orisa has visited bhar and has become a guest in his house at kak Anand whoever gets the Nobel Prize Kinga prize he comes to orisa comes to K comes
To bhar stays in the house of Babu at K in Anand and the package is you know what is given in Kalinga price the package is Einstein silver medal Einstein is know for e equal to MC square that theory has been derived in the price in

Given Alber Einstein silver model is given given by DJ inco in this month given in the month of November it is given in the month of November 10 it is given because November 10 is known in the entire world as World science day November 10 is the world science Day
Celebrated by UNESCO starting from the year 2002 till it is continuing the idea of world science day was germinated in the year 1999 it was materialized in the year 2001 and from 2002 World science day is being celebrated all over the world through the banner of uncope
Paris and on that world science day any member country of the UNESCO celebrates that function and award is given by the DG inco director General inco Paris at that function and the package is whoever gets the prize he visits India for one month with his

For 50 years the all expenses priz money expenses for the jury members expenses for the applications all review finalization all expenses besides the out money all money all expers we are born by calling foundational trust for a period of 50 years from 1952 to 2002 on completion of 50
Years in did a very big thing very big thing I think nobody knows it there is an asteroid known as Kalinga there is an asteroid named in Kalinga in the unco press release in the year 2002 he named Kalinga he named asterid in the name of Kalinga we have asid named as
Kalinga next thing government of India and government of Aisha joined hands with using Foundation trust after after 50 years of completion of this price right now from 2002 to 2023 government of India science and technology department government OFA science and technology department have joined hands with us and the $40,000 and
Other additional expenses administrative expenses are distributed in in a agreable proportion all all the three parties have together decided and the amount has been distributed in suitable proportions amongst the government of India government of orisha and calling final trust Financial this is the financial arrangement we have decided and unco knows it since
2009 Ino told since I have giving many many prices besides calling a price I have few suggestions to calling a found I suggest I means UNESCO UNESCO Paris told us the name of the price should be changed from Kinga priz to UNESCO Kinga priz because all prices that unco gives
They have a word known as unco at the left hand side of the priz any priz Unos gives they known as Unos and the name of the price but this is the only price in the history of unco for unco what is not there it is calling price only so they
Wanted to change the name of the priz from Kinga priz to UNESCO Kinga priz which we agreed enhanced prize money we agreed they wanted to give price once in two years till 2009 the priz was given annually from 2009 onwards prize is being given once in two years
So 2009 2011 2013 20 like like that 15 17 19 all these things till 2008 the price was annually and it was small amount I think it was 202,000 it enhanced double from 20,000 to $40,000 us the price money was enhanced and we all agreed so now this is the
Situation and right now un also thinking world is thinking and we Al we are also thinking to enhance the prize money at par with at par with Nobel price the honor in the world platform is equal Nobel Prize for scientific research Kinga prize for science communication but the our
Money is less ging price our money is less how Nobel price very very high so we want to enhance that price with the cooperation of the world scientific Community how to do now we are strategy are planning how to enance the prize money so that Nobel priz and King priz
Should be at par in the world science platform that is now being planned in the year 2012 telling the price completed 60 years as I told you 50 years was completed in 2002 60 years was completed in 2012 in the year 2012 we organized International Conference on science communication at

We take them around the entire State ENT various universities schools colleges for entire one week he’s engrossed he’s fully busy for delivering lectures for one month he visits India for delivering lectures for one week he visits Indian School Udan school colleges universities science Affairs museums and deliver lecture me to the
Students so King found of trust has a big history and right now also we are engaged in many many activities and we are planning to enhance the prize money at par with Nobel Prize so that scientific research and science science communication they move hand in hand in parall in one
Platform One Direction because beside without science must Reach people scientist do research in the laboratory I am a Scientist I do research in the laboratory but what I’m doing whether general public knows it answer is no I’m limited to research Publications I publish my research work in world class journals International journals world
Class journals and readers are limited leaders are scientist only but a common man has the right to know what a scientist is doing inside the he has every right that right has been given by Indian constitution to Indians in the year 1974 by Constitution Amendment 42nd Constitution amendment has been done by
India and in the article 51 ah in the article 51 ah in the 1974 Indian constitution was amended 42nd Amendment article 51 ah H it is written there I’m reading out the paragraph is written in Indian constitution it shall be the duty of every citizen of India to develop
Scientific temper humanism Spirit of inquiry and reform I repeat again it shall be the duty what a duty it shall the duty of every citizen of India to develop scientific temper humanism Spirit of inquiry and reform and for your kind information my dear parti and Professor Francisco our constitution Indian
Constitution is the only constitution in the entire world which has given this duty to the citizen of the country every citizen of the country has a right to know what a scientist is doing inside the laboratory because he’s a taxpayer scientist get salary based on
The tax given by the Common Man a common man has every right Common Man has a duty to know and common man has a right to know what a scientist is doing inside a laboratory so science must reach Common Man science must go beyond the labor laboratory beyond the glass walls of the
Laboratory four glass walls of laboratory science must live that place and come to the common man door steps of the Common Man so science and society that was the Moto science must reach Society science must reach common man that is why the name of the a is calling
Up prize for population science for the Common Man the name of the entire award is Kalinga prize for population science for the common man that is the total name of the Enterprise the common man is at the center State the priz is Common Man Centric
Common man is the hero common man is my leader in science common man has every right to know what I’m doing in the laboratory because he’s a taxpayer based on his tax I get a salary so that is why the scientist work in the laboratory scientist work in the
University scientist work in the laboratory University and in Academia there are three places Academia industry and Research Laboratories in all these three places scientist work and in all these three factori there should be a cohesion force cive force but that cohesive force collaboration associ is missing right now it is missing what
We do in the industry Academia do not know what we do in Academia Research Institute don’t know the Brotherhood fraternity between the three communities scientific community living in resarch Laboratories scientific communities in Academia scientific Community working industry that cohesive force is right now missing it requires to be
Strengthened so that for science to prosper in the world and for this year 2023 November 10 Inus has given a theme to World science day you know what is the name of the theme right now for this year’s theme is we must trust science the theme for the year November
10 2023 World science day is building trust in science building trust in science we must believe science we must Trust science that means that trust that belief in science is missing right now today not only in India in the entire world that is why UNESCO has designated this
Year World science day as building trust in science we must to build trust in science we must have a Brotherhood science that Brotherhood that cive force that linkage that bonding is missing that is why unco has designed this them we must believe in science we must trust
In science and that trust make a world Brotherhood World Community World scientific Community we are one I’m publishing a research paper entire world knows it once a paper is publish en world knows it once the patent is published world knows it what I’m doing in a laboratory if you are thinking that I’m
Doing work in po of The Glass House no the output goes to the entire world scientific Community knows what is I’m doing here but the general Mass illiterate Mass uneducated Mass common Mass common man he’s in the backside in the back side of the door he does not know what a scientist is
Doing so that a bondage a cohesive force a Brotherhood to develop within the Common Man between the common man and a scientific fraternity scientific that was the objective of this price so keeping that in view Vu Patna the father of modern orisha the architect of modern orisha he wanted no
Science must to reach the doorstep of the common man that is why the name of the prize is calling the prize for population signs for the Common Man the end title of the award the common man is the focus the Common Man for us is the hero
He’s are the center stage of the development entire scientific development Economic Development science is related to economics science is definitely to economy science technology economy go hand in hand we call it scientific economy industry runs on scientific know house scientific technological know house industry runs any industry in the
Entire world runs because there is a scientific know how Scientific Technology that is why any industry in the world runs without science technology no industry can run no industry so there is a cohesive force of science econ Call Scientific economy so without science the science is the future
Science is the Hope and we must trust science You Must Believe science you must live a scientific life scientific way of working scientific for talking the future belongs to science future belongs to 21st century and future not only future belongs to isia the entire world development is now Asia
Centric entire world development in science and technology or the totality in total concept if you see 21st century is India the century Asia the century China Century or China India India as a century 19th century or Century of Europe 20th century was Century of America but this 21st century the century of
Asia Asian Century Chinese Century Indian Century or India Century China India India the century entire Indian youth power entire Indian youth power will lead the entire world in the 21st century entire world is watching what an Indian youth power is doing from morning till night we have a very plus point
We have a very plus Point 65% of India’s population entire population India if you count 65% their age is below 35 years people of the entire world is Aging for India is emerging as youth power youth Nation all people of the entire world all countries are aging day by day the
Riv situation is in India 65% of India’s population are below 30 5 years of age India is emerging as a youth power strong youth power we are the largest populated country in the entire world right now today we are the largest populated country in the entire world today we are the fifth largest
Economy in the entire world we are planning for the5 trillion dollar economy so India is emerging Nation India is emerging nation in science in technology in industrial inasa Innovation all these things platforms are opening up New Dimensions are opening up new door steps are opening up new scientific Frontiers are opening up
In scientific research also in science communication the India has an age over other countries Indian youth power has an age over other youth powers in the entire country in the entire world system the Indian youth is now in the center stage the pr this wisdom knowledge Indian wisdom Indian youth power Indian
Dream is now the center stage of development the entire Global development is now India Centric the things are changing and changing for the better and it is going to be a marvelous situation because we have already witnessed 23 years out of the 21st century we have already seen 23 years
Gone and we are going to be hardd largest economy by Third lest economy by 2030 that is our reg that is our Planning by government of India we are going to be third largest economy in the entire world by 2030 such a situation has never come to the doorsteps of
India entire entire 100 Years of entire You Youth power and entire future of the entire world future of the entire world is Now Youth Centric Indian youth Centric Asia Centric China Centric India centc such a situation has never come in history of the world to the doorsteps of
Indiaan Youth power the things are changing let us hope for the best let us say Gana wisdom Prevail in the entire world let India Prosper let science Prosper let technology prosper namaskar many many thanks Dr MRA you have added another dimension of human rights that is science and Society right
Of human being so today’s uh seminar uh it is within uh the periphery and within the subject area of economic system and human rights and all the three speakers they have given their thought well provoked thought within the periphery of Human Rights and uh uh and and economic
System now I’ll uh uh look at Professor Francisco if he has any question to Dr misra he can no I I it’s very interesting really interesting what he said and what they do no I don’t have any question but just I would would ask the people if we want
To open the debate no I think that is very thank you so much profor MRA really interesting really interesting what you say and what you you do before thank you so much now it is open for all anyone uh wants to ask any question to any of our speaker Mr subas
Das uh Dr Iman Nadim I am seeing uh Dr uh Dr rajes seni Shankar uh suchitra if you have any question then you can directly put forth Mr assis Kumar nyak yes or or you can put on the chart box so that I can put forth sir okay okay
Uh if there is no question then uh uh we’ll be winding of the uh session I must tell that uh yes someone has put it in the chat box it is uh Quran and Bible also teaches the society ideal and ethical principle Dr SS PMA so uh another three messages have come
How can we develop new Innovations in India to whom you are asking Mr bjri okay my answer is through collaboration this is the age of scientific collaboration you should join hands with Academia industry and research institutes these are three three arms all the three arms should join each
Other so that new innovation new ideas can three brains are definitely better than one brain and scientific communities work in the three places and there is a requirement for the entire globe that Academia industry and research institutes should collaborate for development of new world order new ideas new Innovations in the
Society unless you join hands nothing can happen yes so Innovation will emerge Innovation will get birth in the corridors of this collaboration this is the age of collaboration unless you collaborate Miracle cannot happen to miracle to happen you should think out of the box you must think out of the box what
You thinking is within the Box only you think out of the box new ideas will emerge new Innovations will emerge and greater thinking thinking equations will also emerge so out of the box thinking extraordinary thinking extraordinary perception and collaboration with all these three p as I told will develop new
Innovative ideas new Innovations and you’ll be happy to know that the department of Science and Technology will be renamed Department of science technology and Innovation The Innovation word has been added now it will be Department of science technology and Innovation The Innovation go hand in hand with SS and Technology
And moreover basic science is the foundation stone unless there is basic science technology merge so we must put more emphasis on development of basic science investment more in basic science investment is essentially required in India investment is 0.8 of GDP 0.8% of GDP it has to be enhanced at least to 2% in
India this is a major drawback for us this is a major drawback right now today in India India entire scientific Community has requested government of India to enhance from 0.8 of GDP to 2% of GDP so that more platforms more cive force can emerge in the day to come this is essentially required
Because one mind can do something definitely one this is not the age of Nobel priz this is the age of collab Innovation Innovation means synthesis of new ideas synthesis of brains synthesis of multiple brains synthesis of multiple ideas are the requirement for the entire world to prosper
In you have to synthesize the Mind synthesize your ideas synthesize your brain power so that new world New World Order In Science and Technology will emerge and world will be better place to live in
