      Dear Sri Kutty Kumar,

      There are several travel grants to attend Conference abroad if you present a paper in that conference and are invited by the organizers. It depends upon the nature and types of your topic and the department you work. All the premier research establishments in India like CSIR, ICAR, ICMR etc. have provisions for their staff and even outsiders. All Union Ministries have the provision. There is INSA-COSTED travel grant of Indian National Science Academy (INSA). The DST has provisions for travel grant under its NISSAT scheme. UGC; ICSSR also provide PARTIAL TRAVEL GRANTS. There are several International Organizations like IDRC, WHO, The World Bank, Ford Foundation, UNSECO, UNDP etc. also provide travel grant but you have to scrutinize whether your topic and the contents are important enough to seek funds because you have to justify your journey in the application form.

      Sincerely,

      Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
