Everything has to be changed. Salary structure, reporting structure, more autonomy, lesser govt control. These companies need to act as magned in attracting talent. <BR/><BR/>But nothing will happen. the current govt is very busy cajoling other parties for the 123 approval.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-31759572123359721192008-06-27T11:49:00.000-07:002008-06-27T11:49:00.000-07:00because if you pay drdo/isro/barc higher salaries,...because if you pay drdo/isro/barc higher salaries, docs, teachers, peons, clerks, postman etc. everyone will seek pay parity never mind the level of skills involved. that's how the government machinery works: donkeys and stallions get the same treatment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-37088551318676160292008-06-27T11:45:00.000-07:002008-06-27T11:45:00.000-07:00The most sickening part of that is that, then you ...The most sickening part of that is that, then you use that delay as an excuse to import further. Take the T90 as an example. And in the name of TOT all we get is some first generation screw driver technology. If we act and look like idiots why blame outsiders. This has always our tradition hasn't it. I sincerely hope like Kargil we get a jolt in the eastern sector only that will make babus sit up and do something.

Expect the french to follow suit citing higher inflation, falling dollar and what not. This is what happens when you are penny wise (DRDO funding/6th pay commission) and pound foolish (stopgap imports).
