About Research


Basic research is like shooting an arrow into the air and, where it lands, painting a target." - Homer Adkins


According to me, Research is a learning process where we apply some techniques or approaches to find a new solution or better solution than the existing methods for solving a particular problem. The method or the approaches which we may take does not give excellent results always. But that is yet again a learning process in that area and that’s also a research.
