"Engineers are synonymous with diligence and determination. Human progress would be incomplete without their innovative zeal," the prime minister said in a tweet. Greeting the "hardworking engineers", Modi also paid tributes to Visvesvaraya.

Engineers Day is observed to mark the birth anniversary of civil engineer M Visvesvaraya. In his radio broadcast message on August 26, Narendra Modi had said that there were several engineers in the country who made "the unimaginable possible" and "presented such marvels of engineering before the world".
