Physicist, inventor, pioneer and visionary, Jagadish Chandra Bose was the first modern scientist of India. In the late nineteenth century it was hard to believe that an Indian could become a scientist. Working in primitive conditions, without any financial help and constantly battling the scepticism of the scientific establishment, Jagdish Chandra Bose invented the first instruments of wireless telegraphy - the technology that is the basis for all communication today.
