Hi Bankersdaily Aspirant,

                         “First we thought the PC was a calculator. Then we found out how to

turn numbers into letters with ASCII — and we thought it was a typewriter.

Then we discovered graphics, and we thought it was a television. With the World

Wide Web, we’ve realized it’s a brochure.”

Technology plays a vital role in our day to day life. DIPP sets up India’s first Technology and  Innovation Support Center in Punjab.The center would be established at the Punjab’s Patent Information Center under the World Intellectual Property Organization’s (WIPO) programme.
