"A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THE POLITICIAN"
In India, seem to convinced themselves that India is an IT super power Or just about to become one. But, with no major world- class technology/ product originating from India, the truth is that India is far from being an IT super power. The fact is that it takes more than just exporting people to become an IT super power.
A lot of investment in basic and fundamental research is necessary to build a world class IT industry. Sadly, the amount of reread done in our institution and reread labs is nearly zero.
One of the biggest block buster pieces of software in a recent times the web browser was born in the university lab. At government research labs are more interested in not doing something wrong, so they end doing nothing at all.
We need lots more money to support research and devlopment work. Universities and college could also run co-operative program and course like USA &UK,where they can make their money and subsidize the education for students.
We also need to rate the college by their performance. Bcoz this is where the seed of all future wealth creation is sown. Rating the quality of education provide fund and flow to the institution doing good work.
While it will takes a lot of money and times to setup world class research labs; as a start a businesses can being to initiate, fund and research work at college.
And lastly you don’t become a superpower by excelling in only one of human knowledge and activity. All this dreams of becoming a super power can come to dust if we are enable to tackle the problem in food production and distribution, basic education, health care, housing, power and transportation. Information technology can provide the lead but we need to pick up our act in other areas of knowledge and activity as well.
