London: India and Britain on Tuesday announced six million pounds of funding for large-scale science and technology collaboration between their universities and institutions.
The three collaborations will be funded jointly by Research Councils UK (RCUK), a government-funded body, and the Indian Department of Science of Technology.
A three-year grant for three million pounds has been made to Aston University and the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, aiming to deliver "sustainable decentralised bioenergy" for both the developed and developing world.
Another 1.5 mn pounds has been awarded to the University of Leeds, the Indian Agricultural Research Institute and the Indian Institute of Science Bangalore, over four years, the RCUK said.
The project aims to enhance existing interactions to exploit and develop advances in biotechnology applicable in an agricultural context.
