Research and Development

Apropos “The Quest of the Mind” by N.R.Narayana Murthy 24.10.12. While, I endorse the author’s contention that “how we move forward at this moment in our history will determine whether we lead the world well into the next century” and, further his emphasis on developing science & scientific temper in schools from where all future scientist & researchers would come from. I wish to add our Govt. should ditto USA policy of attracting the top brains in each domain of research with fiscal concession, free housing and environment that is expected by all researchers. We can even dedicate a small and beautiful city entirely for research. Our Govt. and Private sector have been little conservative on this score which needs a shift in entire “Mindset for Research & Development”.
