In the article,Mr.Shashi Tharoor has cited examples which are very silly. Can any one say me how the watching of Bollywood movies and TV soaps by war-ridden people of Syria and Afganistan is going to contribute our Economic growth in any significant manner?
If IITs are on par with MIT and let us assume that our IITs are better than any Technical Institutions of other countries....then why an IITian B.Tech is opting for higher degree(MS/PhD) abroad mostly? Why a PhD from an average US University(compared to MIT,such as Univ.of Maryland,Univ.of California) is always given preference for Faculty positions in IITs itself?
