Director's Desk - 60th RC Meeting of CSIR-NML

It is my proud privilege to convene the 60th Research Council meeting of CSIR-NML. I take great pleasure in
welcoming our chairman Shri H M Nerurkar and the other honorable Research Council members for this meeting.
Since the last Research Council Meeting in March, much has happened on several fronts. Firstly, I will present our
performance, the progress that we have made in several of the flagship and major sponsored projects, significant
outcomes from the projects, new business initiatives launched, laurels and achievements, human resource
development and major events organized during this period. I will then highlight where we stand with respect to
the Goals and Targets that we have set ourselves in regard to Vision@2022. Finally, I would also briefly mention
about the proposed activities under the 12th Five Year Plan. I would request the August Research Council to
critically assess the progress made, suggest corrective measures if any and provide advice to accelerate the
pace of growth and realize our Vision.....
