Here is a heartening news and a major breakthrough for young aspiring #StartUps, Innovators and Researchers:
In a landmark step enabling #EaseOfDoingResearch,
the GFR rules have been simplified for procurement of scientific equipment and consumables.
This will reduce delays, also enhance autonomy and flexibility for research institutions—empowering them to innovate faster.
Grateful to PM Sh @narendramodi for this transformative reform which will accelerate the technology driven journey of #ViksitBharat.
