    Overview
    The publication of the translation was drafted and published by the University of Calcutta in 1920. This theory was first published in 1916 in the German language. The German language is also known as the language of Science.

    The first publication was published in three parts which are dealing with the different topics of relativity
    • Special relativity
    • General relativity
    • Relation of relativity with the consideration of the universe as a whole
    From 1916 to 2011 there have been many versions of the theory published in many different languages.

    The story of this publication in the English language is published in the research paper of the Indian journal. It seems like Einstein’s favor came back when the original paper was translated by Satyendra Nath Bose in German. The publication was a very famous journal name of that journal is Zeitschrift Fur Physik.

    The name of Bose is well known in the history of science and the contribution of Bose in the research of Einstein’s theory made him well recognized as the Bose-Einstein theory of condensation and his name is remembered in Bose-Einstein statistics. Including these theories, he also worked with Einstein in the class of particles known as 'Bosnos'.

    Meghanad Saha worked on the thermal ionization of elements and in the formulation of Saha’s equation. Saha’s equation is related to Astrophysics and gives the basic tools for the interpretation of the spectra of stars. And sometimes the astrophysicists use the phrase which is in the name of Saha in “To Saha correctly”. In the history of the Scientist, the name of Saha is the only name that is a verb. The contribution of both Bose and Sah’s work plays an important role in the development of science in independent India.
