Even in the modern era, the country has done tons of important research especially in medical fields. This is also disregarding the work of Indians who did a ton of amazing research outside India. But otherwise, if your question is why they haven’t contributed as much in a relative sense versus western countries, maybe you’ve forgotten, but India has been subjugated for many centuries, under various rules. The Mughals, the British, the Dutch, etc… It’s one of the youngest countries today if you count from when it gained freedom. It took many decades for it to be financially stable and regain much of the infrastructure needed to compete with the west. So as an Indian myself, I’d urge you to put your countries history in context instead of putting it to some ancient texts locking it away.
