The Indian National Science Academy (INSA) commissioned a study to National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) to produce India Science Report (2003-2004) for understanding public attitude towards science through a primary survey.
A questionnaire based survey was done. The sample size was very limited and there has been no subsequent studies based on this questionnaire.
This survey is an interesting attempt to map perception on science and technology. But it had not been taken up further nor had been repeated in the later years. So it is difficult to extrapolate its findings, nor correlate this with any other study.
