A good laboratory is a place where its Director and technicians are adept and do their work with dedication, stated Vice Chancellor Chhattisgarh Swami Vivekananda Technical University (CSVTU), SC Sharma.
He said this while addressing the gathering at the concluding ceremony of five-day long national workshop on ‘Operation and Maintenance of laboratory Equipment-2015’ at Pt. Ravishankar Shukla University (RSU) here on Friday.
Sharma further said that during the past five days, the workshop provided excellent training to participants.
Director General, Chhattisgarh Science and Technical Council Prof MS Hambarde who was also present on the occasion expressed need for holding these kinds of workshops on a regular basis.
He said that Chhattisgarh as well as our country is facing dearth of good technicians.
On the last day of workshop, lectures were held on assembling and fabrications of power supply instruments.
Prof Prabhat Dwivedi from IIT-Kanpur delivered lecture on Nano technology and devices.
According to Prof Sanay Tiwari from RSU, during the workshop, 189 lab equipments were repaired that included equipment that were lying defunct for the past several years.
It has saved about Rs40 lakh that would be equivalent to amount required for purchasing the new equipments, he added.
