If Mukesh Ambani, Ratan Tata et al are lucky to be present and successful in India, why can't they help Sainik Schools and use their influence to advise government to give good salaries to armed personnel.
After all it is the guts of armed forces which stops the anti-nationals from entering in India.

I think there is a misconception here. The Sainik Schools are managed by the SSS. I don't think they can be given over to private individuals. Also, these private individuals have paid their taxes to the Government. It is for the government to utilise these taxes sensibly. Do you see any evidence of this around you?

Dear Mr. Bond,
Why do we expect our corporates to make up for the failures of our government (both central & state)? The primary role of business houses is to run business and not the country. For that, we have this humongous army of corrupt politicians and babus who have dubiuos capability but enjoy unearned privileges. Please take the government to task for its failure and do not expect the corporate world to take over the governence of the country. If that were to happen, do we need governments at all?
