Service to society
Our scientists should become civic scientists and contribute towards societal
development and transformation. Civic means concerning the community or the people.
In the new capacity, they should step beyond their campuses, laboratories and institutes
and move into the centre of the communities to engage in active dialogues and action
with their fellow citizens. They should ask themselves a question as to how their
knowledge can make an impact on common man’s life. Our civil servants should become
fearlessly people-oriented, have a positive attitude, responsive.proactive transparent and
provide unbiased services to the billion people.
Primary education
The 86th Constitution Amendment Act provides Right to Education Bill for children
between the age group of 5 to 14 years. Urgent action is needed for providing suitable
school, infrastructure and appointment of good teachers for providing quality education
to the children blended with the modern technologies of e-learning and tele-education.
While doing so a review of the syllabus is also required to prevent overloading of the
children for ensuring blossoming of their creativity.
Examination Reforms
We have witnessed that many national examinations have been the target of attack by a
select group of corrupt individuals who undermine the very fabric of secrecy and
transparency of the conduct of these examinations. While we should deal with these
individuals with sternness to protect the image of our national selection system and
quality, we should also find technological solution that can ensure tamperproof
examination system.
Pharmaceuticals

integrated and comprehensive National Pharmacy vision to meet the challenges to design
drug development, production and marketing. The major challenge before the pharma

market.

market aggressively. The exploration of the moon through ‘Chandrayaan” and keeping
sight on Mars will electrify the entire country, particularly young scientists and children.
Defense
Modernization of our armed forces with force multipliers is indeed progressing to meet
the national security needs. Defense technology has led to the development of long range
missile systems and supersonic cruise missiles, light combat aircraft, electronicwarfare
system, radars, under-water sensor, combat vehicles and armaments. The Indo-Russian
joint venture programme-BRAHMOS is one of the leading examples of development,
production and marketing of state-of –the-art missile system.
Energy sector
India has the power generation capacity of hundred thousand megawatt which could be
tripled by the year 2020. In addition to the power generation from the conventional
sources we need to enhance the power generation capacity through non-conventional
energy sources to attain power security. Desalination plants can be co-located with future
nuclear power plants for converting sea-water to drinking water. We need to establish
large solar farms of 800 to 1000 megawatts capacity in many areas to augment the energy
requirements.
CONCLUSION
A challenge that test our strength of body and mind, a mystery that baffles our
understanding; a riddle that gets more complicated the more we try to figure it out; a
tough exam where you are called upon to solve the most complicated and unexpected
questions. The path of success is not strewn with roses but one meets with most deadly
thorns, dangerous curves, and unexpected turnings that frighten and exhaust ordinary
models. Similarly the vision of seeing a developed nation is not an ordinary task but it is
also not impossible provided we all Indians strive hard to attain it.
