One of the major decision India took in early stage of post independence was converting FPS (Foot, Pound, Second) system to MKS (Meter, Kilogram, Second), a Metric system before the industrial growth took place. Today, it is unthinkable to switch if it was not done before. USA can%u2019t do it today or even a decade before as it would cost the country several billion dollars because it has already grown so much industrialized with old FPS system. MKS system is more meaningful in today%u2019s globalization.
