Transport
A thematic gallery on Transport was thrown open to public on the occasion of the year-long celebration of the Pre-Golden Jubilee year of this institution during 2008 – 09. Spread over an area of 500 sq.m. with approximately 50 models and exhibits, the gallery portrays the development of transport system from the ‘Wheel’ to the ‘Supersonic Jet Engines’ of the modern time through artifacts, models and interactive exhibits in thirteen specified sections. This gallery as a whole presents an opportunity to the visitors to see how the development of transport system in water, on land and in air has added new dimensions to the human life. A 1926 Rolls Royce Car and the Fiat Tipo used by the eminent scientist Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose are the star attractions of this gallery.
