India being one of the oldest civilizations in the world, the history of education in India is fascinating and can be traced back to the ancient era. Researchers and Historians have shown that from manufacturing the best steel in the world, sintering of Zinc to teaching the world to count, India has been a pioneer in science and technology centuries long before modern laboratories were set up. The contributions of ancient Indians to the community of science can be clearly understood by the well known comment of Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all times who stated "We owe a lot to the ancient Indians, teaching us how to count. Without which most modern scientific discoveries would have been impossible."
