The Indian nuclear physicist, Homi Bhabha was viewed as the dad of autonomous India's logical ethos and its atomic program. He set up with the support of the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, an esteemed place for research in atomic material science, which later came to be known as the Bhabha Atomic Research Center. More than all else, Bhabha is associated with his immovable obligation to science and the extraordinary expectations he had for the eventual fate of science in India.
The consideration which Bhabha provided for the arranging of the Atomic Center at Trombay is a legend. What is less known is his function in planning the scene in and around the Center.
While arranging the streets, he saw that an antiquated mango tree remained at that very spot where a street was to pass. The structural architect responsible for building the streets had suggested that the old tree be evacuated so a straight street could be fabricated.
This enormously bothered Bhabha. He unequivocally felt that the tree, which had inhabited the spot for more than a hundred years, reserved each privilege to be there.
