The 57th convocation of IIT Delhi, with our Prime Minister as the Chief Guest, held on 08 August 2026 was special to our lab ๐—ฆ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—ฆ๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐——๐˜†๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐˜€ ๐—Ÿ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ in several ways. It not only marked 20th year of our lab but also witnessed achieving doctoral head trick. All three doctoral theses culminated in solving real-world problems by innovative product development with real-life applications. It is a matter of pride for me as mentor to introduce each one to the world.
