The Department during the seventh five-year

scientists in the country who remain active and deeply motivated
to participate in S&T development activities even after
their retirement. The scheme has continued to play a significant
role in involving a large number of retired scientists in
S&T developmental activities. The main activity under
the programme is preparation of books/monographs/state-of-the-art
reports. Annually, about 25 retired scientists are supported.
The project duration is normally for two years and the Scientists
awarded in this scheme are given an honorarium.
