A Consumers Appreciation of the Symposium

I AM extremely grateful to Dr. B. R. Nijhawan for the opportunity given to me to speak to you today, It is indeed a great honour to me that I should be permitted to speak to this audience of specialists. But the only justification for this impudence of mine is that I have the privilege to be the metallurgist of it premier ind- ustry of this country - Praga Tools Corporation, Secun-derabad.During the last three days, I have had the rare opportunity to listen to able expositions of the problems of industry; of course, presented in theoretical and scientific fashion. As I sat listening to those papers, especially those applicable to the processing industry, our own problems came to my mind and my own ideas crys-tallized into shape and I now go back with the satis-faction that our conclusions have now got the official, research workers' stamp of authority
