Raman with the main objective of promoting the progress and upholding the cause of science (both pure and applied). It was registered as a Society under the Societies Registration Act on 24 April 1934. The Academy commenced functioning with 65 Fellows and the formal inauguration took place on 31 July 1934 at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. On the afternoon of that day its first general meeting of Fellows was held where Sir C.V. Raman was elected its President and the draft constitution of the Academy was approved and adopted. The first issue of the Academy Proceedings was published in July 1934. The present report covering the period from April 2007 to March 2008 represents the seventy-fourth year of the Academy. -

Annual2016-17 Report SATYENDRA NATH BOSE NATIONAL CENTRE FOR BASIC SCIENCES Annual Report 2016-17 SATYENDRA NATH BOSE NATIONAL CENTRE FOR BASIC SCIENCES Annual Report 2016-17 Satyendra Nath Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences Publisher Satyendra Nath Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences Design & Print Cygnus Advertising India Pvt. Ltd. Acknowledgement Annual Report of the ‘Satyendra Nath Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences’ is a brief representation of its activities of a financial year. The report reflects research activities, administrative activities, academic progress and achievement of young research scholars, development of infrastructure and facilities, and establishment of network with advanced research groups around the world. It’s seventh time I have been assigned the job of compilation of Annual Report of the Centre. To prepare the Annual Report, all the faculty members and sections of the Centre spent their valuable time to provide respective data. It is a time bound work to be completed within a short span of time. This is the first time the Annual Report is translated and typed in Hindi within the Centre. The Hindi Officer, Sadhana Tiwari has given sincere fatigueless effort to translate the entire Annual Report in Hindi and library staff - Gurudas Ghosh and Ananya Sarkar typed the Annual Report in Hindi within a very limited time period. Words won’t be suffice to describe the painstaking labour of Hindi translation team. I would like to acknowledge the sincere efforts and labour of my Library staff - Gurudas Ghosh, Ananya Sarkar and Amit Roy without whom the work could not be completed within the stipulated time. -

Construction Activity 247 1 About The Institute History: The Harish-Chandra Research Institute is one of the premier research in- stitutes in the country. It is an autonomous institution fully funded by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India. The Institute was founded as the Mehta Research Institute of Mathematics and Mathematical Physics (MRI). On 10th Oct 2000 the Institute was renamed as Harish-Chandra Research Institute (HRI) after the acclaimed mathematician, the late Prof Harish-Chandra. MRI started with the efforts of Dr. B. N. Prasad, a mathematician at the University of Allahabad, with initial support from the B. S. Mehta Trust, Kolkata. Dr. Prasad was succeeded in January 1966 by Dr. S. R. Sinha, also of Allahabad University. He was followed by Prof. P. L. Bhatnagar as the first formal Director. After an interim period, in January 1983 Prof. S. S. Shrikhande joined as the next Director of the Institute. During his tenure the dialogue with the DAE entered into decisive stage and a review committee was constituted by the DAE to examine the Institute’s future. -
