Jagadish Chandra Bose
Pioneer of radio and plant research who worked under colonial limits and still forced the world to notice Indian experimental science.
Bose built instruments, published, and taught when the empire preferred Indians as clerks. Discovery as defiance.
He belongs with Kalam and Raman: science as dignity.
Why on this wall
Early proof that Indian labs could lead, not only follow.
