What Abhijit said about simplifying the language is absolutely correct. Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar is famous in Bengal for that. He is known as the father of modern Bengali language. He realised that Bengali language is very complicated as at that time it was almost similar to sanskrit and common peasant folks can not internalize such complicacy so he worked on the language to simplify it. Even though not immediately but with time it was his Bangla that slowly became the mainstream.

In one of the videos, he also used the word "humanities trash" and said that he was saying so "completely aware that he was himself a humanities graduate". But that was in the context of value addition. He said that he has a great deal of respect for those in STEM, because someone who is able to introduce new technology, say, is a lot more capable of value addition than a humanities graduate. But then, a vast majority of our engineers cannot engage in value addition. We have seen many polls indicating that a preponderance of our engineers are unemployable and do not have the skills that the industry looks out for. AI-based start-ups, for instance, have periodically needed to re-train, almost re-educate their employees.

[@surendrabarsode8959]

Abhijit is basically making an argument that there are serious deficiencies in India's indigenous defense system and we need to create an appropriate eco system essentially developed around super specialty SMEs in this area. He is right from a top down point of view. And his observations on Tejas should be seen in this context. Under Modi, we do observe that there is a reorientation in the approach and IAF has fully owned the program. We cannot abandon LCA and it is coming up as a good fighter with associated weapon system. Secondly, USA is not going to give us any technology and is interested only in selling its wares (with threat of sanctions all the time!). In particular, it is not selling us F35. So we have to depend on our own pubic or private sector or both. As of now, we are NOT preparing to China. Let us first be strong enough to deter China from doing any mischief.

And you are saying there is no need of mk2? Even big economies can't keep large fleets of 5th gen. South korea story is different they dont have requirement of 42 squadrons.

Abhijit I agree that Humanities always lead development. I think though, our education system is an actual obstacle to good higher education.

Great idea centralizing food cooking at district level. I have seen the kind of food served to kids. It is pathetic. Governance becomes easy and efficient if it is centralized so that we do not require experts at each school level.

Humanities controls science is painful increasing. While higher science is to reduce humanities difficulties.

AIM seems to think that because we don't have the capacity to develop fighter planes, we should not even try --- the govt has to invest knowing that benefits will be seen 20 years down the road when you would have created ancillary industries in the process. Over time if the indigenous content goes from 50% to 80% I will be happy. I am willing to accept that there will be technologies like a jet engine you may not master properly, but thats fine -- but giving the entire business to Lockheed Martin or Dassault is no solution! He is also discounting air tactics, and strike package formations --- no one plane as a group goes into a fight. There's usually a mix of aircrafts that go in, so it will never be cannon fodder kind of setup. I am suspecting AIM gets a lot of money to lob bombs in KZbin from JAS & LM, which is fine! Make proper disclosures man!

BUREAUCRACY HAS FAILED THE LCA PROJECT . AGREED TO SOME EXTENT EVEN IAF HAS BEEN DISINTERESTED. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT ADA IT HAS DONE FANTASTIC WORK ON LCA IN TERMS OF FLY-BY-WIRE,MISSION COMPUTER ,COMPOSITE MATERIAL WHICH ARE THE MAIN STRENGTHS OF LCA. Tejas is not a bad fighter but it lacks economies of scale. The current IAF CHIEF WHO WAS THE CHIEF TEST PILOT ON THIS PROJECT KNOWS THIS FACT AND HAS BEEN INCREASING FOCUS ON IT.

[@Kafir_Hindu]

Let Tejas work also come under PMO or ISRO control. Initial steps always takes larger efforts and Tejas is one among them. Instead of pulling ourselves back, better we move with 6th research and works. Hope this attempt may work.

[@Kafir_Hindu]

@@kushjindal2939 it's just my guess and suggestion as ISRO got some expertise in rocket engineering and aerodynamics could be the extension to rocket science. They may work hand in hand to produce superior results

[@Kafir_Hindu]

@@kushjindal2939 yes bhai, and that's the reason i meantioned aeroscience as an extension to the rocket science. ISRO might be quick to learn controlling of the propulsion in comparison to other govt agencies. Anyway it was my assumption and i only expressed the probability of getting this to true. Rest is all in hands of almigty, waiting for foreign help is a costly affair and not a good idea at all

[@Kafir_Hindu]

@@kushjindal2939 i am aware bhai rocket need to attain escape velocity of app 28000/hr i.e 11.6 km/sec. As ISRO achieved this much, wish some jeneous may be able to help for controlled combustion also. I am very confident some we will have some super person who may be able to help and take the nation at needed level.

[@nemesis728]

About education in India.. I also think going to school should not be mandatory, their should be half yearly and yearly exam which we can attend and that way we can pass out school but it should not be mandatory for students to associate them selves with school... Anyway we don't learn anything their we finally go to these tuitions and coaching classes.... What's use of wasting money on schools who only bully students and make their life hell.... I might be wrong.... But really I hate school even after 4 years.... I don't know how people say that they miss their school days... School days are nightmare for me 💔

[@Saiprahladk]

Agreed.

[@SuperFatafati]

AIM has no idea what he is talking about. BVR missiles like Astra need AESA radars that are so power intensive that they cannot be fed off an IJT. And here he is lecturing that fix Astra on IJT. Not to mention that Tejas has EW capability with self jamming pods and a mutch better combat range than any IJT.

[@kamalbhullar5035]

Bro kuch bhi. Kaise fire krwa loge bvr IJT se? You need a radar with range and for range you need to power the radar. IJT la 25KN engine power dega elta 2052 ko?

[@observerrecord2499]

Despite being an engineer I don't take offense of AIM's comments. Because a few things he said are true. LCA Tejas is Technically (even from the Engineering perspective) is a point fighter. With Marc 2 variant it's increasingly resemble the Gripen E (I gave you the hint. You get the point). I also agree to the fact that our dependence on PSUs will be fatal and private sector should be given the significant share in defense production.

[@fenrir834]

what exactly are you implying by Tejas mk2 resembling Gripen?
