The prime minister had given the slogan 'Jai Anusandhan' at the Indian Science Congress in Jalandhar in January 2019.

Modi said India will soon step into the 5G era, and it has also made rapid strides in laying optic fibre. "The dream of digital India will be realised through villages," Modi said.
The prime minister said the movement of digital India will power three big changes in the coming decade in education, healthcare and every other aspect of life.
"A new world is emerging. India will play a key role in this. The coming decade will prove to be a techade for humankind. This decade of technology is India's techade. We have proved ourselves in the field of technology," Modi said.
The prime minister said aspirational society was the biggest asset of any country.
"It is our endeavour that the youth of the country get all support for research in all areas from space to the depths of the ocean. That is why we are expanding our Space Mission and Deep Ocean Mission. The solution to our future lies in the depths of space and the ocean," the prime minister said.
