Dear ASPuar ji,ASPuar wrote:Kansonji, lets not clutch at straws. The job of the DRDO is to fulfill the Armed Forces requirements for defence technology. A vision and mission statement is a pretty weak thing to try to base your counterclaims upon. I too have a vision, that I will be saviour of the human race. But its not happening anytime soon. A man can dream, and so can an organisation. But they should stay within the bounds of what their job is. If the government of India had wanted them to become the engine of making India prosperous, they would have called them the "Indian research and development org", and not DRDO. They also wouldnt have placed them under the MOD. But since they havent, and this argument is clearly just hoping against hope, lets come back to reality, and understand what DRDO was created for, which was to provide the AF the tech that they require.
We are talking about professional institutions like DRDO & Army saar. Not about my uncle's and Aunty's mottos, missions and visions. As I said before, one of the mission of DRDO is to develop technology base. There are many spinoffs that DRDO commercialized. Kalam often says, his proudest moment is in providing light weight calipers for the kids as a direct spinoff from the development of re-entry vehicle of Agni missile. You ever questioned why DRDO a defence org under MOD is doing that ? What is in the name...
Does Army has motto mission statements ? Will that be treated in the sameway ASPuar ?
