Modern drug discovery and the role of Indian researchers have stimulated or inspired several authoritative and informative articles and surely demand more attention. On 1 January 2015, Nitya Anand (former Director, CSIR-Central Drug Research Institute (CDRI), Lucknow, and one revered in Indian pharma affairs), completed his eventful 90th year. To commemorate this event, a one-day symposium on 'Drug Discovery in India: Past, Present and Future' was organized at CSIR-CDRI, Lucknow. This prompted us to carry out a retrospective assessment of the status of new drug discovery research in India with special attention to the role of Government research institutions.
