Over the years, National Technology Day has evolved into a flagship occasion for honouring scientific excellence, showcasing industrial innovations, and reinforcing the partnership between science, society, and industry.
The official theme for
National Technology Day 2025
is 'YANTRA – Yugantar for Advancing New Technology, Research & Acceleration.' The word YANTRA, deeply rooted in India's scientific and cultural heritage, represents not just mechanical ingenuity but also symbolic power — of systems, synergy, and scalable solutions. Yugantar, meaning an epochal shift, is emblematic of the country's momentum in transitioning from technology adaptation to global technology leadership.

This comes at a critical time when India is not only scaling digital infrastructure but also building green, resilient technology ecosystems across industries and geographies."
