A Retrospect

Abstract

Twenty second day of April,1966 is a red letter day for all the lovers of Welding technology and its allied subjects in India, as on this day, our Indian Institute of Welding was incorporated as a limited Company under the Company Act, 1956.

There was no National Institute of Welding in India then to foster the technical development of welding. It was therefore essential that such a Technical Association was formed, at the earliest opportunity so that the development of welding could be guided in the proper channel and India can take its rightful part in National as well as International activities in the field of welding.
