Abstract
The SU(3) group, its role in bridging the shell model and the collective mo del, SU(3)based truncated shell model calculations and puzzles associated w ith quadrupole-quadrupole interaction together with solutions are briefly d escribed. An overview of various important developments resulting from the application of SU(3) symmetry, and its potential in exploring new frontiers of nuclear structure physics is presented.
