Celebrating India’s Mathematical Heritage 🇮🇳
K-IIT College of Education, Gurugram, through its भारतीय गणित विरासत मंच, organised a special online lecture on “India’s Gift to the World in the Field of Mathematics” on 15 September 2026.
The भारतीय गणित विरासत मंच, an academic initiative of the College dedicated to promoting and integrating Vedic Mathematics and India’s rich mathematical heritage into contemporary education, provided a meaningful platform for exploring the timeless contributions of Indian mathematical thought.
The insightful session was delivered by Mr. Sayantan Roy, DDPI & OSD (CS Branch), Department of Higher Education, Government of West Bengal and UGC Master Trainer (IKS). His engaging presentation explored India’s contributions to mathematics, including ancient number systems, the concept of large numbers, mathematical constants, and diverse approaches to representing numbers.
The lecture beautifully highlighted the relevance of India’s mathematical wisdom in fostering logical reasoning, analytical thinking, creativity, problem-solving and innovative learning. It also encouraged participants to view mathematics through the lens of India’s knowledge traditions and appreciate its continuing relevance in the modern world.
The session was enriched by the enthusiastic participation of faculty members and students.
KIIT College of Education extends sincere gratitude to Mr. Sayantan Roy for the enlightening session and to all participants for their active engagement.
