This is entirely the fault of the Indian Education System and Popular Media. The current generation knows almost nothing about these Indian Greats.

In order to rectify the status quo;

1) Everybody should get the monthly magazine Science Reporter published by National Institute of Science Communication and Policy Research (NIScPR), Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), New Delhi, India. which gives a overview into Indian Science - https://sciencereporter.niscpr.res.in/

2) The two-volume The Mind of an Engineer by Purnendu Ghosh et al. published by Springer contains essays from many of our recent Scientists/Researchers/Engineers etc. - https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-981-10-0119-2

3) Books on Indian Science/Scientists available on Amazon India, particularly the one by Jayant Narlikar (himself a great astrophysicist); The Scientific Edge: The Indian Scientist From Vedic To Modern Times. - https://www.penguin.co.in/book/the-scientific-edge/
