Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman was an Indian physicist who was most recognized for his work on light scattering. He is the first Asian to receive a Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the scattering of light and the discovery of the effect named after him in 1930.

Sir C.V. Raman, was born to a Tamil family on 7th November 1888. His father was Chandrasekhara Ramanathan Iyer, and his mother Parvathi Ammal. Since childhood, he was very keen on pursuing science and later became one of the eminent scientists of India. 

He completed his graduation in 2 years at the age of 16, and by the time he finished his masters, he had already published two papers to the British Journal Philosophical Magazine. He joined the Indian Finance Service in Calcutta as an Assistant Accountant General when he was 19 years old. There he joined the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science (IACS), India's first research institute, which allowed him to do independent study and contributed to the fields of acoustics and optics.

Finally, in 1917 he was appointed as the Palit Professor of Physics and dedicated himself to full-time research. While traveling to Europe by sea, he was fascinated by the blue color of the sea and later started to research it. On 28th February 1928, C.V. Raman finally discovered the Raman Effect along with his student. As a result, the Indian government has designated February 28th as National Science Day to celebrate his contributions to science.

In 1930, he received the most prestigious award, the Nobel prize in Physics for his Raman effect. His other contributions include the establishment of the Indian Academy of Sciences, the foundation of Raman Research Centre in 1948, and more. In 1954, he received India’s highest civilian honor Bharat Ratna Award. Dr. CV Raman, one of the greatest personalities of India, inspires us to follow our dreams and work hard with lots of dedication.
