  Architecture, Astronomy, Medicine and Surgery, Metallurgy and Mathematics were in advanced stages of development, right from the Vedic period. Much of the documentation at the famous universities of Nalanda, Takshashila and other places of learning were irrevocably lost during the alien onslaughts. After Indian Independence from Britain in 1947, resurrection is taking place on a massive scale, and contemporary scientists hail from all sections of the Indian Society.
