Science has been a part of our day-to-day life. It developed along with the progress of man. In other words, life of man progressed along with the development of science. Our imaginations were behind every scientific invention. Inventions in different fields will go on for the benefit of mankind. During the last five decades science has taken a giant stride. 25-30 years ago no one would have believed of a device as small as a match box can be used as phone, camera, internet browser, music recorder, music player, video player, video camera, calculator and a lot more - all rolled into one. The progress of science has been exhibited inside the 'Science Express' Train which arrived in the capital on Sunday under its nation-wide tour. Happiness has no bound on the faces of small children when the much awaited 'Science Express' entered the Habibganj Railway Station at 11 am on Sunday. The train being run by the Science & Technology Department of the Central Government is joint effort of the governments of India and Germany. The moment the train halted at the station, the children were so happy and became impatient to go inside it.
