India is accelerating its push into next-generation secure networks through the Quantum Communication Thematic Hub, a core pillar of the National Quantum Mission (NQM). The hub is tasked with developing indigenous quantum communication infrastructure, including satellite-based links and long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) networks that can secure critical data flows across the country and beyond its borders.

The latest episode of the Government of India’s Digital India “Ask Our Experts” series, titled “Quantum Security for Every Citizen,” addresses how emerging quantum computers could undermine today’s encryption and expose everyday digital services to unprecedented cyber risks.

Dr. K.V.N. Rajesh has launched a first-of-its-kind 100-lesson quantum computing syllabus on YouTube, aiming to make one of the most complex areas of modern science accessible to students, professionals, and curious beginners worldwide.

India has taken a decisive step in the global compute race by activating the second phase of its National Supercomputing Mission (NSM 2.0) at the Supercomputing India 2025 summit hosted at MIT–MAHE, Bengaluru. Branded around the theme of converging high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, and quantum technologies, the initiative aims to move India from being a consumer of imported supercomputers to a designer and manufacturer of its own end-to-end compute stack.​

India has crossed a critical threshold in the global quantum race with scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, unveiling the country’s first six‑qubit photonic quantum system. Developed under the National Quantum Mission, the setup uses photons packets of light to encode and process quantum information, placing India in an exclusive club of nations pursuing quantum computing through light‑based platforms rather than solely through superconducting or i

In a recent “Tech Trends” segment on DD National’s DD Morning Show, technocrat and author Er. Atul Tripathi explained how quantum technology is emerging as a decisive factor in future warfare, cyber security, and national resilience.

Prominent physicist Prof CS Unnikrishnan (DIAT, Pune) has shed light on the transformative breakthroughs driving quantum technology and India’s National Quantum Mission in a recent Asianet News interview.

The Department of Science & Technology (DST), Government of India, recently hosted "Session I – Quantum Science & Technology," spotlighting significant progress under the National Quantum Mission (NQM).

In a significant advance towards practical quantum computing, researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have successfully demonstrated the construction of universal quantum gates and the generation of a six-qubit entangled state using a novel photonic quantum walk technique.
