September 5, 2013 by Jolad Rotti

Sir CV Raman

Raman Research Institute (RRI) was founded in 1948 by the very renowned Indian physicist, Sir C.V. Raman, a Nobel Laureate. This was founded so that he could continue his personal research and studies after his retirement from the Indian Institute of Science. He continued his research in RRI until his demise in 1970. This institute was funded by CV Raman himself, with the help of his personal savings and private sources also donated funds.

A plot was gifted by the Government of Mysore to Sir CV Raman for the creation of this institute. This was in December 1934. In the same year, the Indian Academy of Sciences was also founded by him.

Several properties were donated by Prof. Raman to this academy for the benefit of the RRI. After Prof. Raman’s death in 1970, this academy created a public charitable trust called the Raman Research Institute Trust.
