The Story in Brief
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address IIT Delhi’s 57th convocation on Saturday, where more than 3,000 students, including 587 PhD scholars, will receive their degrees. He will also present the President’s Gold Medal, Director’s Gold Medal, Shankar Dayal Sharma Gold Medal and Perfect Ten Gold Medals, according to an official statement cited by Telangana Today.
Modi will inaugurate Param Pragya at IIT Delhi’s Sonipat campus. The AI-powered high-performance supercomputing facility is intended to strengthen work in artificial intelligence, data science, advanced computing and interdisciplinary research.
The Indian Opinion
The easy narrative will be that a new supercomputer alone can transform India’s AI ambitions, or that a convocation appearance proves research is thriving. Neither follows automatically. The useful test is what Param Pragya delivers after launch: how many researchers gain access, which projects use it, and whether published results or practical applications follow. IIT Delhi’s 587 PhD graduates also offer a more grounded measure of capacity than ceremony-day claims.
