If nobody in DRDO works, as you claim, them how do you account for the projects which they have completed successfully. Or do you say that they have a 100 percent faliure. Dr. Kalam worked for ISRO before coming to DRDO. So if you blame Kalam for DRDO, then you should also commend him for ISRO's success? Mr. Rohit, the matter of fact is both DRDO and ISRO, both have had their fair share of successes and failures. In India, hardly any research goes on in the private sector and the research in many areas are done only in government research labs. After graduating if someone wants to get a good research experience in a non-IT area in India, they have to work in some of these goverment research labs (CSIR, DRDO, ISRO etc.). Working in these labs helps many in the early stages of their careers. They use this experience to go and work abroad or go for higher studies. This explains the high attrition rates of these organisations.
