Thank You , Dr S Jaishankarji,
( External Affairs Minister / eam@mea.gov.in
)
For accepting my following suggestion ( sent as e mail
to Cabinet Ministers ) :
Need of
the hour ? : TEAM [ 21 April 2017
]
By TEAM , I mean : Technology Evaluation and Acquisition Minister
Whose
job description will be :
Remain constantly on look-out for developing / developed
technologies from around the World , evaluate their relevance to India’s myriad
problems and acquire the same from the developers ( including patent rights /
IP rights , to exploit it / improve upon it )
Make available these acquired technologies to Indian Companies (
both , in private and in public sectors ) / NGOs / Start-Ups etc , FREE of cost (
conditions apply in respect of production targets / pricing / time to implement
/ after-sales service etc ! )
========================================================
In today’s Economic Times, I came across following news
:
Extract :
Ø The external affairs
ministry on Wednesday announced the setting up of new, emerging and strategic
technologies ( NEST ) division
Ø NEST will act as the
nodal division within the ministry for issues pertaining to new and emerging
technologies
Ø Its mandate shall
include, but not be limited to, evolving India’s external technology policy in coordination with
domestic stakeholders and in line with India’s developmental priorities and national
security goals
Ø It will also help
assess foreign policy and international legal implications of new and emerging
technologies and technology-based resources, and recommend appropriate foreign policy choice
Ø NEST will negotiate technology governance rules, standards and
architecture,
suited to India’s conditions, in multilateral and pluri-lateral frameworks
In my e mail , I
had not only listed following 10 urgent problems facing India,
but also listed the contact details of Scientists / Institutions which have
developed technologies to address these problems of national importance :
> Unavailability of
clean drinking water in drought / famine affected areas
> Pollution thru plastic bottles
/ Mountains of Land Fills – Garbage Dumps
> Loss of Forest cover
/ Rampant Desertification
> Millions sleeping in Streets /
Slums, for want of affordable houses
> Traffic Jams on City Roads /
Hours to reach Office-Home
> Charging of Batteries of
Electric Vehicles takes hours !
> No transmission lines for
taking electricity to far-flung villages
> No way to store ( for use at
night ), billions of KWH of Solar Power
> Fossil Fuel Power killing
millions / Urgent need to generate Solar Power
> Dependence on import for Li-ion
batteries / Fast charging button batteries
> High value currency notes
facilitating generation of BLACK MONEY
> Making available high speed
Internet to entire India ( remotest corner )
> Poor road construction methods
resulting in perennial pot-holes
I hope, NEST will work in close
co-ordination with :
Ø Dr HarshVardhan ( Minister for Science and Technology )
Ø Professor K VijayRaghavan ( Principal
Scientific Advisor )
Chairman, PM – STIAC
[ Prime Minister’s Science, Technology
and Innovation Advisory Council ]
