Views about 'Tech product Introduction is weak among Indians'
Feudal mentality and no accountibility of Scientific and research Organisations for the tax payers' money being spent by them.

Country where people are called'Outstanding Scientist' and 'Distinguist Scientist' not for outstanding Scientic works but as designations in hierarcy, how we can expect original Technical products come out here.

My important career decision
In the 1990s I faced problem of obsolecence of I&C items in a big way,as newer microprocessor based products were flooding the market. Even though my bosses were interested to throw away those items and go for new purchase, as it involves big money. I,maintenance Engineer stood firm on alternative development and keep the existing things working. I was successful against lot of pressure. And of course I had to pay a heavy price of my career for standing firm on the matter ofOrganisation interest.
My achievement
Whatever task came to me,I carried out to the satisfaction of my innerself. I developed import substitutes to face off obsolecence and carried out lot of site modifications to overcome teething problems
