The Backdrop

Phenomenal developments in Telecommunications and Electronics in any countries were already influencing independent India engaged in its gigantic nation building efforts in 1947.

The existing professional or scientific bodies in India at that time were not able to pay adequate attention to nurture and grow these specialized engineering areas at a rapidpace as required by the country. The need for a separate professional institution fully devoted to Telecommunications, and Electronics which could bring together various individuals or groups working in these areas became acute in the early '50s, as India Launched itsprogramme of national development through five-year plans. It was visualized that such an institution could cope with the rapid developments in the above fields, coordinate and disseminate technical knowledge, facilitate exchange of views among the members,publish results of their aspirations to professional status and also serve as a focal point for the orderly growth of this specialized branch in the country. Although, proposals for forming such an institution had been made by several seniors in the profession from time to time in the earlier years, their efforts finaly met with success when the Articles of Association of the Institution of Telecommunication Engineers (name by which IETE was known then) was signed on 01 October 1953. The first President being Shri B R Batra, Chief Engineer, Psats & Telegraph Department, NEW Delhi.
