Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India and Observer Research Foundation (ORF) announce partnership for inaugural edition of Raisina Science Diplomacy Initiative (SDI)

• Raisina SDI is a new India-led platform on science diplomacy, launched jointly by the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser (OPSA) to the Government of India and the Observer Research Foundation (ORF) as a dedicated track within the Raisina Dialogue.
• It institutionalises India's pitch to shape global governance of disruptive technologies (AI, quantum, biotech) in an era of strategic autonomy and a multipolar S&T order.
• Examinable angle: intersection of GS-II (international relations) and GS-III (Sci-Tech, R&D); pairs with Raisina Dialogue, ITES-Quantum, and India's tech-diplomacy posture.
