Roorkee: Eminent scientist CNR Rao has asked students to take the less travelled road to succeed and lamented the paucity of funds for science and education in India. "First thing for success, take a lonely road," said Rao at IIT-Roorkee's annual Cognizance on festival, quoting Robert Frost's 'The road not taken'. He expressed disappointment over everybody flocking to the same information technology industry. Rao, a recipient of the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian honour, recounted his own successful experience that he was one of the very few people in the world who took up solid state chemistry back then and how people mocked at him for that. In his message to researchers, he said, "I tell you don't give up. Whatever be the problem, don't give up. He advised them to practice the qualities of dedication, doggedness and tenacity."
