What Does India Need? Projectivity or Productivity?

Are you working for an Indian software company? What are you working on? A Project or an own Product?

Bill Gates is recognized for Microsoft Windows, Steve Jobs is for i-phone and i-pad, we have so many examples like this. Let me ask you now- for what product Mr Narayan Murthy recognized for? Ask yourself, take any Indian Software company and analyze for what product they are recognized for. Nokia is famous for Nokia Mobiles; Samsung is for quite much number of electronic items. Google could create a new verb. For which product do you mark Wipro? (Leave its consumer goods section). Western Products Ltd- Wipro has forgotten what is a product when it comes to Wipro Technologies. Where do its EGO laptops stand in international Market?

Have you observed one thing? We feel proud when some Indian name runs in credential when adobe acrobat initiates. We proudly announce this much percentage of yahoo, Intel, Microsoft employees are Indians. Now tell me, why still we are working on some project borrowed from those companies? Why we could not create an OS like Microsoft, Unix or Mac? Why still we are importing phones from China? Why we don’t have indigenous Chip, Mobile or Complete Desktop? Is it much difficult than an aircraft, a satellite launching vehicle or a cryogenic engine, or a super computer?

Ask CDAC or ISRO people how to work on a product? They have built indigenous products. We have cryogenic engine now! Just because USSR did not give us cryogenic technology when we asked it for! We have PARAM super computers just because USA was unwilling to provide us that technology. They worked for the nation! We, so called engineers work for company, work for project, work for service!

Narayana Murthy is our youngsters’ role model. What flashes you when we tell the name of Narayana Murthy! There could be Finacle, Tally or similar software products by Indian software units, but again they are just a service to their clients. What flashes in your mind when somebody tells Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Larry Page, N Y Philiphs……? People who do not know English have brand name called Lenovo, which now acquired IBM’s hardware unit. The same Chinese people have Huawei; to run our internet connections we have no other option!

We Indians are masters in English have nothing! (Our software companies test communication skills in English during recruitment) Our companies work on some projects which are already researched and developed by Huawei! You learn Chinese to bring that silly project! Our knowledge in foreign language is used only for bringing or begging some projects! The same Narayana Murthy tells many of our engineering students are not eligible to be employed. Yes, our schools have prepared such graduates who can work on some project- a borrowed out sourced service! They are not prepared to work on their own product or a landmark in the technology! What else you can expect when your requirement is the same?

Work for ‘Product’vity not on ‘Project’vity!

India needs a law against MMS sex scandals

There was a website of Indian sex cartoons-Savitha Bhabhi. Today you can not browse it. Government of India banned the site and enacted the law against the website. There was conspiracy that some of its characters resemble some of the bollywood legends. Law can always be enforced against the porno sites if the state has the willpower to do so.
Have you ever thought of how many sex scandals happens daily and get caught by hidden cameras or mobile cameras. Number is in hundreds. They all gets uploaded into the web. They are downloaded by millions. Once they got downloaded they are transferred to further millions by blue tooth devices.
India never accepted the porno sites, films, magazines. But the MMS scandals are becoming business. The websites are making more money than any others. Thousands of young girls and boys are ruining their life for some miss deeds they have done. Number of MMS or other sex scandals are pictured without the knowledge of the couple or one of them. Some are pictured with the knowledge or by themselves. There is no point in analysing all these.
The MMS scandals starts from DPS school students' MMS clip(Watch Dev D) to Malnad engineering college couple in Mungarumale, have completely ruined their life. At least the MMS or videos are not publicised they could have live there life somewhere. Though Mysore Mallige guys Prithviraj andChetana married it did not survive for long. A nun in Kerala was cught in mobile by her own sex partner-driver and was uploaded.
Now the mania of such scandals have entered even small towns. Vandana's sex tape Mangaloreans down. Now it has entered Kushalnagar, a small town of Coorg with Rizwan's sex scandal with Pallavi, a student of Engineering College of the town. The policemen have not taken a simple action to find out which girl is that out of nine Pallavis in the college. They are waiting for a suicide. Now a College girl of Sirsi has also became a pet off all local guys. The uniform she is wearing is of the local college- a newspaper reports. But no action taken!
Why we should not have a strong law against all these. It should punish all from one who has pictured to one who stores in any form. If it found to be pictured with the knowledge of the couple or girl then they should also be punished. This laws should resemble laws of Taliban- bigger punishments! Just because there deeds will not only spoil the life of their own but also ruins the society and the culture.
