The foundation of the Academy, earlier known as the National Institute of Sciences of India (NISI), was the outcome of joint endeavours of several organizations and individuals and the Indian Science Congress Association (ISCA) playing a leading role in this regard. Towards the end of 1930, the then Government of India wrote to various State (then provincial) Governments, Scientifi c Departments, Learned Societies, Universities and the ISCA seeking their opinion on the desirability of forming a National Research Council which would adhere to and cooperate with the International Research Council and its affi liated Unions. This period witnessed the visit of Sir Richard Gregor, the Editor of Nature for discussions with the Editor of Current Science for the promotion of an Indian Academy of Sciences. The proposal was considered by various eminent scientists whose views regarding the composition and functioning of such a national council were put up in the form of resolution to the ISCA during its Pune Session. A special meeting of ISCA was held in Mumbai in January 1934 to consider the scheme. In response to the plea made by the President of the ISCA, Professor MN Saha in support of an Indian Academy of Sciences on the model of the Royal Society, London, the General Committee of the ISCA unanimously accepted the proposal for the formation of a national scientifi c society. The Committee formed an ‘Academy Committee’, which was requested to submit a detailed report for consideration at the next session of the ISCA. The committee submitted the report in January 1935 incorporating (i) the aims and objects of the national scientifi c society to be formed; (ii) draft constitution; (iii) names of 125 Foundation Fellows selected by a Special Committee of Specialists; and (iv) names of 25 scientists as members of the provisional Council of Academy. The report of the Academy Committee was placed by Dr LL Fermor (President, 22nd Session, ISCA) before a Special Meeting of the Joint Committee on January 3, 1935. The recommendations of the Academy Committee were accepted by unanimous resolution by the ISCA and the foundation of the National Institute of Sciences of India as an all India body of scientists was thus laid. An inaugural meeting of the National Institute of Sciences of India (NISI) was held on January 7, 1935 under the Chairmanship of Dr JH Hutton (President, 23rd Session, ISCA) in Calcutta, and the Inaugural Address was delivered by the fi rst President of NISI, Dr LL Fermor. The Institute, thus, started functioning with its Headquarters at the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1 Park Street, Calcutta, from that day. The issue of the Government recognizing the NISI as the representative body of the scientists was taken up after ten years of its foundation. After due deliberations and discussions, it decided to recognise the National Institute as the premier scientifi c society representing all branches of science in India in October 1945. The Headquarters moved over to Delhi in May 1946, and the Government commenced providing increased grants to meet expenses on travel, publications, research fellowships, and for allocating grants- in-aid to other scientifi c societies for bringing out their publications. A capital grant for the Headquarters building was also sanctioned in 1948 by the Government. The foundation stone of the building was laid by Pt Jawaharlal Nehru, the then Prime Minister of India, on April 19, 1948. The Offi ce of the NISI moved to its present premises on Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, New Delhi in 1951. It was designated as the adhering organization in India to the International Council for Science (ICSU) on behalf of the Government of India in January 1968. The name of the National Institute of Sciences of India was changed to the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) in February 1970. vi The Year Book 2019 OBJECTIVES (a) Promotion of scientifi c knowledge in India including its practical application to problems of national welfare. (b) Coordination among Scientifi c Academies, Societies, Institutions, Government Scientifi c Departments and Services. (c) To act as a body of scientists of eminence for the promotion and safeguarding of the interests of scientists in India and to present internationally the scientifi c work done in the country. (d) To act through properly constituted National Committees, in which other learned academies and societies may be associated, for undertaking scientifi c work of national and international importance which the Academy may be called upon to perform by the public and by the Government. (e) To publish such proceedings, journals, memoirs and other publications as may be found desirable. (f) To promote and maintain liaison between Science and Humanities. (g) To secure and manage funds and endowments for the promotion of Science. (h) To perform all other acts that may assist in, or be necessary for the fulfi llment of the above- mentioned objectives of the Academy.

Classical phases of (0 + 1) dimensional unitary matrix models can be characterised by free Fermi droplets in two dimensions. We quantise these droplets and find that the modes satisfy an abelian Kac-Moody algebra. The Hilbert spaces H+ and H− associated with the upper and lower free Fermi surfaces of a droplet admit a Young diagram basis in which the phase space Hamiltonian is diagonal with eigenvalue, in the large N limit, equal to the quadratic Casimir of u(N). We establish an exact mapping between states in H± and geometries of droplets. In particular, coherent states in H± correspond to classical deformation of upper and lower Fermi surfaces. We prove that correlation between two coherent states in H± is equal to the chiral and anti-chiral partition function of 2d Yang-Mills theory on a cylinder. Using the fact that the full Hilbert space H+ ⊗ H− admits a composite basis, we show that correlation between two classical droplet geometries is equal to the full U(N) Yang-Mills partition function on cylinder.

    Contribution of Five Titans to the Education & Research in pre and post Independent India : A personal perspective Arun K Grover Panjab University, Chandigarh 160014 Desh Bhagat S LAL SINGH Oration Punjab Academy of Sciences - 20 th Science Congress , Feb. 7, 2017 , IET Bhaddal, Punjab Contributions of five titans to the education and research in pre and post independent India: A personal perspective The addition of Punjab to the territories under the British rule in 1849 nucleated the thought of regulation of school education and administration of higher education all across Indian sub-continent. The Universities Act 1904, which applied to the then five Universities of India located at Calcutta, Madras, Bombay, Lahore and Allahabad, enjoined them to appoint Professors and other faculty members to engage in research, concurrent to the teaching. The initiation of IISc. Bangalore (1909) and BHU (1916) spurred the research agenda on behalf of academic institutions in India. The establishment of more Universities after the first World War, through the 1920s, progressed the spread of higher education. The start of second World War in 1939 necessitated the Governmental support to Scientific & Industrial research and manufacturing & product development within India. The war ended with the two atomic bomb explosions in Japan, and this led to the expansion of Governmental support to Atomic Energy research programme within India. The Indian independence in 1947 accelerated the permeation of higher education and research in all the spheres. I shall share a personal comprehension of great contributions made to the education and research in different domains by the five titans, viz., S.S.
