Abstract
Dr. Subhas Mukhopadhyay achieved a significant milestone in reproductive medicine by creating India's first test-tube baby, just 67 days after British researchers made a similar breakthrough. Despite this remarkable achievement, Dr. Mukhopadhyay faced substantial discredit, ridicule, and forced silence, which tragically led to his untimely death by suicide. It was only through the persistent efforts of Dr. T. C. Anand Kumar that Dr. Mukhopadhyay's pioneering work was eventually recognized, and he was credited with this groundbreaking accomplishment in India.
