Sir Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar OBE, FNI, FASc,[2] FRS,[1] FRIC, FInstP (21 February 1894 – 1 January 1955) was an Indian colloid chemist, academic and scientific administrator. The first director-general of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), Bhatnagar is revered as the Father of Research Laboratories in India.[3] He was also the first Chairman of the University Grants Commission (UGC).[1][4][5]
