  • Organic Chemists of Pre-Independence India: with Special Focus on Natural Products
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 53.4 (2018) T108-T114 DOI: 10.16943/ijhs/2018/v53i4/49533 Organic Chemists of Pre-Independence India: With Special Focus on Natural Products D Balasubramanian* (Received 17 May 2018; revised 22 June 2018) Abstract Using materials obtained from plants and animals for medicinal, community and technical purposes has been going on in Indian and other ancient civilizations for millennia. With the introduction of western scientific methods into colonial India, isolating, purifying and determining the chemical structures of the components in these materials, and some understanding of the basis of their action became possible. We focus here on the birth and growth of the chemistry of natural products of medicinal and technical value. We discuss here the roles of three pioneers in organic chemistry who started their work in colonial India and enabled the blossoming and growth of outstanding research the field, once the colonial bondage was freed: Professors T R Seshadri, who was single-handedly responsible in generating excellent schools of medicinal products chemistry across the country, K Venkataraman who catalyzed many Indian-initiated chemical industries through his research and mentorship, and Salimuzzaman Siddiqui, who became the father of organic chemistry as well as modern scientific research in Pakistan in particular. Key words: Dyes, Foundations of science in Pakistan, Molecular structure, Natural products, Seshadri, Salimuzzaman Siddiqui, Venkataraman. 1. INTRODUCTION sense of national pride, and

  • Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar, Working Through/Against the Colonial System
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 53.4 (2018) T51-T59 DOI: 10.16943/ijhs/2018/v53i4/49525 Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar, Working through/against the Colonial System Robert Anderson* (Received 18 April 2018; revised 17 May 2018) Abstract Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar was unusual in the scientific community of twentieth century India, perhaps unique. His behaviour tested the ‘default settings’ of the political and administrative system in which he lived and worked, as shown here in three examples from his life. Constrained by those settings like everyone else, he nevertheless found an entrepreneurial space in which he could experiment with innovations. He was a leader with an ego, but also seems to have been an enabler, still able to identify promise in others. Although he was deep in the rules of the system, he does not appear to have been a blocker of other peoples’ potential. Bhatnagar was, when we see him in these three situations, usually in transition from one state [in the chemical sense] to another. He was polyvalent, combining and acting with quite difference forces. He seems never to have been trapped in a binary set of oppositions, at least not for long. He was a sign, in the semiotic sense, which could be read in two or three different ways. All this made him an intermediary leader in the building of scientific institutions for the scientific community, channeling the energies and resources of the colonial system through the hands of the builders, some of whom he had picked himself. But what kind of leader was Bhatnagar in the last stage of his life? Key words: Atomic energy, Bhabha, Chemistry and chemists, Coerseduction, Colonial ‘system’, CSIR, Delhi, Entrepreneurial space, Hegemony, IISc, Intermediary leader, Lahore, London rules, National laboratories, Raman, Saha.
