Jalandhar, January 6, 2023: An expert lecture on the activities of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) was hosted by DAVIET on the college premises. Sanjeevan Dadwal, the Zonal Resource Person for BIS was the keynote speaker. The lecture was attended by enthusiastic students, faculty and staff members.
Dadwal began his lecture by giving a brief overview of the history and mandate of the BIS, which is the national standards body of India. He explained that the BIS is responsible for developing and promoting standardization in the country, and for ensuring that Indian products meet international quality standards. He went on to discuss the various types of standards developed by the BIS, including those related to safety, performance, and environmental protection. He also spoke about the various programs and initiatives the BIS has undertaken to promote the competitiveness of the Indian industry, and the challenges it faces in doing so. Dadwal then shared that the government has come up with an initiative wherein every student will be trained and provided with the material to educate at least 20 more people about BIS.
