Sh R C Agarwal your Tea was not accepted by Uttarakhand Police, Sub Inspector B P Singh’s report misfired

Leave a comment

Today evening around 18:15 hrs SSP, Dehradun marked Sh Jagdish Kumar, T O ‘C’s request to CO, City, Dehradun for proper investigation for action in atrocity against Sh R K Agrawal, Principal Associated Director, Outstanding scientist, Scientist ‘H’ (although promotion got with false claim of Project NARAD), which was duly authenticated  by  another Agrawal i.e. Director, DEAL, Sh R C Agarwal who was got two service extensions as he is having international stature  as DoPT criteria for service extension beyond age of 62 years is only for those scientists or medical professional who possessed international stature in their respective field.

GOD and Sh Avinash Chander, DG DRDO only knows the international stature of Sh R C Agarwal, Director, DEAL or may be Sh Avinash Chander impressed his false authentication capability.

Procured SDR 3000 or SDR 5000 or developed prototype of DEAL SDR will be use for museum which was build  by Dr S Pillai in Brahmos campus. Like Kalam Gallery, Pillai Gallery……..SDR gallery

Now Sh R C Agarwal will make another special Tea for CO, City, Dehradun to protect his beloved Agarwal, if CO, City, Dehradun not visit DEAL campus than he has to take special Tea in thermos to CO, City office.

All the best

Dr. K Tamilmani,DS,DG(Aero) along with six senior officials of GTRE, CEMILAC and DG Office Visiting DMSRDE, Kanpur

Leave a comment

Dr Tamilmani’s hidden agenda of visiting Kanpur is to show the Dr. D C Pande’s fact finding report to Dr  A K Saxena and his team. In fact the report is too voluminous because the DMSRDE dozen corruption case leads lot other files too and so Dr. Tamilmani asked six senior officials to carry those procurement files which are too heavy due to corruption because everyone knows the wrongdoings carries lot of weight.

Agenda for public – to review project “Development of high oxidative & thermal stability oils (Hots Oil)”

Dinner with all scientists G and project team (one or two special invitee DMSRDEians better know who are they)

Dinner’s hidden agenda is as Dr. Tamilmani now very well understand the capability and manipulation expertise of Dr A K Saxena in procurement and after expose, damage control ability(Media connection), so after the Dinner Dr A K Saxena will give presentation to six senior officials, so they can replicate the manipulation techniques like before procurements how interact with suppliers /vendors how architect the tender and specification to fool the government laid down rules etc. – 20:00 to 22:00 (time will extend depends upon liquor quality.)

Reply by CVO, MOD regarding CEPTAM -06 DRDO Recruitment Scam

1 Comment

Following points were raised.

DRDO Hqrs made it a mockery and laughing object. DRDO has violated SRO from beginning of CEPTAM and there are several cases pending in CAT/High courts all across the India.

The recent recruitment drive tells a different story.

CEPTAM – 06 Advertisement Published in Employment News dated 04-10th May, 2013.

No of post advertised in various categories – 844

Approximately 5 lakhs application received (excluding hundreds of applications misplaced)

Approximately 1 lakh applications were rejected for silly reasons (example followed)

Approximately 2 lakhs candidates not able to appear for examination held on 25th August 2013

Approximately 3 lakhs candidates deprived by Sh Rajesh Goyal, Director, CEPTAM

It is very big question, how DRDO can give permission to Sh Rajesh Goyal, Director, CEPTAM to play with fundamental right of young citizen of India.

Please go through the following facts which clearly shows Sh Rajesh Goyal’s, Director, CEPTAM personal vested interest

The SMS game – All interested candidates who wish to apply for DRDO Entry Test, are compulsorily required to register themselves on mobile no. 56677 of CEPTAM by sending a SMS in this format CEPTAM First choice of Exam City Code Post Code Date of Birth as ddmmyy NAME (Leaving a space between first, middle and last name) Example: CEPTAM 15 0112 231283 Rupesh Kumar Goyal (Name of Director’s son, it is example of pure chamchagiri environment of CEPTAM). Why this SMS system introduced by Sh Rajesh Goyal, Director, CEPTAM
Approximately 5 Lakhs application received and each applicant paid Rs 3 for each SMS registration.

Total MONEY received by CEPTAM 15 Lakhs

The contract was cooked with M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS a computer peripheral supplier and well connected with Sh Rajesh Goyal since he was in ISSA. Anyone can verify these things with back record of firms supply orders vs with Sh Rajesh Goyal’s involvements. The M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS website http://milsys.co.in is shown the order of client list. If 5 lakhs applicants registered the MONEY was huge 15 Lakhs and in open MARKET bulk SMS service providers 6 to 7 paisa /SMS so any one can work out the play in this contract. The CEPTAM did not give this contract through DAVP shows the corruption angle.

No approval from competent authority to induct compulsory Mobile registration.
No tender floated by CEPTAM for bulk SMS service providing
No minimum 7 vendors address procurement policy of DRDO followed (Limited tender)
CEPTAM was not approached to DAVP empanelled SMS bulk service provider
M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS – Provides -Selling of Computers & Related Peripherals such as :Range of Desktops / Servers – IBM / HP / COMPAQ / ACER etc.Range of POS and Kiosk / Billing Machines – Panasonic / Epson,Multimedia Products e.g. Video & Audio Processing Cards, Website designing and hosting. Man power Solutions / Recruitment Solutions /Data Entry. Annual maintenance contracts (AMC)

The CVO MOD in reply of RTI revealed some facts and corrective steps suggested by MOD

Sh Rajesh Goyal was the chela of Dr A K Singh and following letter revealed the  lenient view taken by DRDO the main point of corruption nexus with M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS is not even mentioned. Now after  Sh Rajesh Goyal retirement suddenly M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS vanished from CEPTAM procurement scenario. Modi ji is true that every organisation respective heads starts to run their parallel system defying all government laid downs rules. In  DRDO you will find this culture in every lab the companies rises with new Director and vanished with his retirement and best part of this these beloved companies act like a Wall Mart from needle to missile parts are readily available with these new born companies.

Any candidate who deprived from this SMS or wrong address act can asked relief from court. Court certainly give fair chance to special written test for DRDO recruitment. Young friends unite and fight with these corrupt officials of DRDO, Modi ji with you he all ready said “न खाऊंगा न खाने दूंगा” please report your cases to PMO, if need any help contact any time  09411114879, prabhudoon@gmail.com

डीआरडीओ के काम से बेहद खफा है मोदी

Leave a comment

Updated: Sat, 23 Aug 2014 04:11 PM (IST) | Published: Sat, 23 Aug 2014 03:50 PM (IST) By: Editorial Team – नयी दुनिया

नई दिल्ली। रक्षा मंत्री अरुण जेटली ने पनडुब्बी रोधी युद्धक पोत आईएनएस कमोर्ता को आज नौसेना में शामिल कर लिया। मगर, यह मध्‍यम दूरी में हमला करने में सक्षम सतह से हवा में मार करने वाली मिसाइल (सैम) और एडवांस्‍ड लाइट टोव्‍ड ऐरे सोनार्स (अल्‍तास) से महरूम होगी। इन दोनों की आपूर्ति रक्षा शोध एवं अनुसंधान संस्‍थान (डीआरडीओ) करने में असफल रहा है।

देश में रक्षा प्रणाली के क्षेत्र में शोध करने वाले एक मात्र संस्‍‍थान डीआडीओ की यह पहली नाकामी नहीं है। प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी ने 16 अगस्‍त को मुंबई में आईएनएस कोलकाता को सेवा में शामिल किया था। वह भी दो अहम सुरक्षा प्रणालियों सैम आल्‍तास से महरूम था। इस मामले में बेहद खफा मोदी ने डीआरडीओ को नोटिस भेजा है।

छोड़ दें ‘चलता है’ वाला रवैया

रक्षा क्षेत्र में 49 फीसदी विदेशी निवेश को स्‍वीकृति देते हुए मोदी ने इस सुस्‍त संसथान से निजी कंपनियों से प्रतिस्‍पर्धा के लिए तैयार होने के लिए कहा है। देश की सुरक्षा व्‍यवस्‍था में लगे अधिकारियों ने बताया कि मोदी ने रक्षा मंत्री से इस संगठन की विस्‍तृत समीक्षा करने को कहा है। साथ ही कहा है कि यदि जरूरत हो तो वह श्‍वेत पत्र जारी करें। मोदी ने 20 अगस्‍त को संस्‍थान के वार्षिक पुरस्‍कार समारोह के मौके पर डीआरडीओ को कड़ा संदेश देते हुए कहा था कि अधिकारी ‘चलता है’ वाला रवैया छोड़ दें।

डीआरडीओ में शुरू किया सफाई अभियान

प्रधानमंत्री ने कार्यक्रम में शामिल होने से पहले डीआरडीओ की सफाई का अभियान शुरू कर दिया था। उन्‍होंने सेवानिवृत्‍त होने वाले वैज्ञानिकों को सेवा विस्‍तार देने की समीक्षा करने वाली कमेटी को खत्‍म करने का आदेश दिया था। कमेटी कैबिनेट की नियुक्‍ित समिति को अपनी सिफारिशें भेजती थी।

डीआरडीओ के डायरेक्‍टर जनरल अविनाश चंदर सहित कम से कम 15 शीर्ष वैज्ञानिक सेवा विस्‍तार पर काम कर रहे हैं। चंदर दो वर्षों के सेवा विस्‍तार के बाद फिलहाह कॉन्‍ट्रेक्‍ट पर काम कर रहे हैं। मजेदार बात यह है कि उनके पास सचिव (रक्षा) शोध व अनुसंधान, डायरेक्‍टर जनरल डीआरडीओ और रक्षा मंत्री के वैज्ञानिक सलाहकार के पद हैं। एक अनुमान के अनुसार हर साल करीब छह से आठ लोग डीआरडीओ में सेवा विस्‍तार पाते हैं। प्रधानमंत्री इससे खुश नहीं हैं।

Narendra Modi extremely unhappy with DRDO’s failure to meet deadlines in delivering products

Leave a comment

BHAVNA VIJ AURORA,ET Bureau | Aug 23, 2014, 12.19 PM IST – The Times of India
NEW DELHI: When defence minister Arun Jaitley commissions Indian Naval Ship Kamorta on Saturday in Vizag, it will be bereft of the critical mediumrange surface-to-air missile (SAM) and advanced light towed array sonars (ALTAS) — both of which Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has failed to deliver.
This is not the first failure for DRDO, the only body in the country doing research in the field of defence systems. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had commissioned INS Kolkata on August 16 in Mumbai.

That too was without the crucial long-range SAM systems and ALTAS.drdo award 2014

Extremely unhappy about the state of affairs, Modi has put DRDO on notice. With the government approving 49% FDI in defence, the PM has asked the tardy organisation to shape-up in the face of competition from the private sector. Officials in the security setup of the country told ET that Modi has asked the defence minister to conduct a detailed review of the organisation, and if need be come out with a white paper on it.

Modi personally delivered a stern message to DRDO, asking the officers to give up their “chalta hai” (lackadaisical) attitude, during the annual award ceremony of the organisation on August 20. The PM had started the DRDO clean-up project even before he attended the award function. He ordered scrapping of a committee that was reviewing cases to grant extension of service to scientists, who had superannuated. The committee sent its recommendations to the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet.

As many as 15 top scientists of DRDO, including Director General (DG) Avinash Chander, are on extension. Chander, in fact, is now on contract after two extensions. Incidentally, he holds three posts — Secretary (Defence) R&D, DG (DRDO) and Scientific Advisor to the defence minister. It was the previous ACC, under the UPA government, comprising Manmohan Singh, AK Antony and Sushil Kumar Shinde that had granted him extensions and finally appointed him on contract in November 2013. About six to eight people were believed to be getting extensions each year in DRDO.

“The PM was not happy about it. As per a department of personnel and training (DoPT) ruling, only the best scientists of international stature should be considered for extensions. He asked for all the details. He was told about the high attrition rate among the younger scientists,” disclosed a senior defence ministry official.

The review committee, scrapped by the government, comprised secretaries of Department of Atomic Energy, DRDO and ISRO as members. Modi is believed to have said that the secretaries of the same departments could not review extensions of their own personnel. He has now constituted the committee to include the Cabinet Secretary and secretaries of unrelated departments of science and technology and earth sciences.

“It is to weed out the dead wood that Modi made the announcement about employing only young scientists, not over the age of 35, in five of the 52 DRDO labs. It is a beginning and will send the message to everyone working in DRDO to deliver,” explained the defence ministry official.

DRDO spokesperson Ravi Gupta could not be contacted for a comment.

INTENT FOR CRIMINAL MISCONDUCT UNDER SECTION 13(1)(d) of PC ACT 1988 in PROCUREMENT OF FUME HOOD AT DMSRDE KANPUR BY DIRECTOR, DMSRDE, KANPUR

Dr D C Pande,
Scientist ‘H’, Outstanding Scientist
For DS up gradation list 2014 seniority no 10
Chairman 2nd Fact finding Committee constituted for DMSRDE corruption
LRDE, DRDO, Bangalore   

Subject – Intent for corruption & criminal misconduct u/s 13(1)(d)of PC Act 1988 by Director, DMSRDE

Reference – Complaint to CVC – DMSRDE FUME HOOD PROCUREMENT CASE dated 22 January 2014 on the subject “Corruption in procurement of Fume Hoods in DMSRDE Kanpur officers involved in procurement”.

Sir,

For your kind attention on the complaint under reference on the subject cited above. In this procurement case Scientists of DMSRDE, DRDO were involved.

DGR&D, DRDO is trying to protect the corrupt Scientists of DMSRDE who involved in Corruption by means of illegal FFIC. In this series he constituted two FFIC which made investigation on 13-14 March 2014 and 9-10 July 2014. First FFIC gave clean chit to Dr. AK Saxena and beyond their constitutional rights recommended two scientists transfers as penalty. This is the example case in government department where fact finding committee chairman acts as judge or DRDO Hqrs’s top management used him for unconstitutional act. This brilliant idea was came from the Dr. W Selvamurty’s great चेला ( who is running DRDO administration because everyone knows that our DRDO, DG is always busy with cooking, out of the way promotion and directorships for his ………….., so he leaves all the conspiracy acts to his administrative man like his predecessor did. Beside the whole organization witnessed the exemplary result of Dr. Arun Kumar, the predecessor’s  Great चेला .

It is not new for DRDO, DRDO never take lessons from the failure of projects, that’s why Hon’ PM said on 19th August 2014 to DRDO’s so called ऋषि  leave the “चलताहै ” attitude.

The report of second FFIC is still awaited, GOD knows what will Pande ji do, it is very interesting to see his report outcome and maybe you are waiting for DS list.

Bye they way please go through some astonishing facts of only one case as a example which establish how tampering of evidences and fabrication of documents took place in DMSRDE.

Under the various guidelines of CVC, Hon’ble Supreme Court & High Court Judgments, the intent/intention for criminal misconduct is sufficient ground for section 13(1)(d) of PC Act 1988.

The DMSRDE scientists are involved in Criminal Misconduct under section 13(1)(d) of PC Act 1988 which is established by following facts.

  1. Supply Order of Rs. 45,76,005.00 was issued to KAN-THT (INDIA) Pvt. Ltd., Delhi vide SO No. 14AT0089 dated 19 November 2013.(Copy Enclosed)
  2. Original Delivery Period (ODP) was 28 Feb 2014.
  3. Complaint was made to CVC on 22 January 2014.
  4. Supply Order was cancelled by Director, DMSRDE under planned conspiracy between Director, DMSRDE and KAN-THT India, Delhi.
  5. Commercial Invoice No.  BIOBASE20140123IN dated 22 and 23 January 2014 was issued from JINAN BIOBASE BIOTECH CO. LTD., CHINA to KAN-THT in the name of DMSRDE, Kanpur, I don’t think corrupt official of DMSRDE even know about this. (Copy of the Invoice is enclosed.
  6. From Invoice of Biobase, China it is quite evident that KAN-THTwas mediator in whole procurement deal and SO was issued to KAN-THT not to Biobase, China. Since SO was issued to KAN-THT India, Delhi then how Biobase, China issued Commercial Invoice of the Fume Hoods on name of DMSRDE, Kanpur.
  7. The price of 14 No.  of Fume Hood 1200C as per invoice dated 22 and 23 January 2014 is total $ 35000.00 as per conversion rate of one $ = 62 Rs. 2170000.00 (Rupees Twenty one Lakh Seventy thousand only)
  8.  The cost of supply order for 14 No. of Fume Hood 1200C as per SO dated 19 November 2013 in INR is Rs. 45,76,005.00(Rupees Forty five lakh seventy six thousand and five only).
  9. Therefore the difference in prices of Supply Order and Invoice is Rs. 24,06,005.00 (Rs. 4576005.00 – Rs. 2170000.00). The difference of amount of Rs. 24,06,005.00 was not justify, if you plus other expenses like transport/installation/profits etc not come more than 30 to 40%  the nexus between, DMSRDE officials and KAN-THT India, Delhi can clearly establish.
  10. The supply order was cancelled under exposure of deal & pressure of my complaint to CVC on subject matter. Cancellation of supply order itself shows that there was no need of Fume Hoods in DMSRDE and procurement was initiated just to get fatty commission by corrupt officials of DMSRDE. Therefore total amount of Rs. 4576005.00 of public money was going in wastage and major part of this, more than 50% was going in pocket of DMSRDE corrupt officer
  11. Mere cancelation of Supply Order cannot dilute their crime under section 13(1)(d) PC Act 1988 and their involvement in criminal misconduct. It is very clear that Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, Director, DMSRDE was having intent for corruption of Rs. 26,14,815.00 and involved in criminal conspiracy and criminal misconduct along with Mr. Ajitendra Singh Parihar, Scientist ‘D’(The Indenter). Mr. Shielendra Kumar, Scientist ‘F’ (Head Estate & Work Division and MMG) and Mr. Ajay Chandel, Head of KAN-THT India, Delhi.
  12. Till date no action has been initiated by Sri Avinash Chander, DGR&D, DRDO against Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, Director, DMSRDE despite he is fully aware of the real facts and truth of the case.

The crux of above case is how DRDO purchase manual manipulated in this case

  1. As per invoice of Biobase, China the billing address is DMSRDE and shipping address is also DMSRDE, it means Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, Director, DMSRDE very well knows that if they ask CDC from CC R&D, DRDO who is suppose to issue CDC in the case of domestic suppliers will ask the copy of purchase order placed by domestic supplier to foreign supplier as well as the copy of invoice issued by foreign supplier to domestic suppliers and it is clear mandate that the more than 30% of the invoice cost are not allowed.
  2. If the billing and shipping is direct to DMSRDE or any establishment than Director is suppose to issue CDC.
  3. In this case as per Biobase, China invoice custom can made party for damrage charges to DMSRDE and DRDO lose its credentials.
  4. This the mechanism to fooling the CDA and Government of India after making so many rules and precautions DRDO officials busy in research to fix the poor tax payers money.

In light of aforesaid facts, I kindly request you to submit your true findings& recommendations in FFIC report and leave the DS promotion list to almighty GOD’s disposalas these corrupt top DRDO officials could not write your faith.

Although as per DOPT Guidelines for FFI, you should call me for personal hearing but you make that technical lapse, still I again like to inform you that there are several trump cards that has not been revealed till so far as your FFIC did not gave personal hearing to me.

Besides this I would also remind you very humbly that like your Bigboss Sri Avinash Chander, you will not submit false report to protect Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, Kanpur as Sri Avinash Chander submitted false report to protect his friend Dr. Arun Kumar. That everybody knows the effort of Bigboss was failed and Dr. Arun Kumar was treated properly by Hon’ble Defence Minister Sri AK Antony.

Hope you will listen your heart’s voice “अब  कितने  दिन  बाकि  है  वैसे भी  लगता  है  मोदी  जी   ने    एक्सटेंशन  बंद करने  का  मन बना  लिया  19 अगस्त को  जैसा  की  उन्होंने  कहा  की  मुझे  5 लैब्स  ऐसी  चाहिए  कि   जिसमे  35  वर्ष  से ऊपर   कोई   नहीं  हो”  समझने  वालो  के  लिए  इशारा  ही  काफी  होता।

World won’t wait for you, PM Narendra Modi tells laggard DRDO

Leave a comment

Rajat Pandit,TNN | Aug 21, 2014, 05.46 AM IST
NEW DELHI: The “Chalta Hai” attitude will no longer do. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has directed the DRDO to ensure delivery of cutting-edge weapon systems to the armed forces in time to keep India ahead in the national security arena.

Though the stern message was couched in mild language, the intent behind it could not be lost. Most of DRDO projects, ranging from Tejas light combat aircraft to long-range surface-to-air missile systems, after all, are running years behind schedule with huge cost overruns.

The fact that India, which aspires to be a superpower, still embarrassingly imports over 65% of its military requirements is basically due to failure of successive governments to build a strong domestic defence-industrial base (DIB) as well as tardy performance of DRDO and its 50 labs, five defence PSUs, four shipyards and 39 ordnance factories.

India does not lack the requisite scientific talent and capability but this “chalta hai” attitude (lackadaisical) has put paid to all endeavours, said Modi at the annual DRDO awards function on Wednesday.

“The world will not wait for us. We have to run ahead of time. We should not say in 2014 that a project conceived in 1992 will take some more time,” said Modi. With defence technology evolving at a rapid rate around the globe, India cannot afford to conceptualize systems that are two steps behind what will soon hit the MARKET.

“DRDO has to decide whether it will only react to the situation, or become pro-active and set the agenda for the global community. I have hopes from DRDO because I know it has the capability to perform,” said Modi.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the DRDO Awards 2013 function in New Delhi on Wednesday.

Defence minister Arun Jaitley also stressed that defence scientists had the “intellectual talent” to turn DRDO into “a hub for defence manufacturing” if they worked towards it in the right earnest.

But this might take some doing. For one, DRDO wants more FUNDS for R&D. For another, though it has over 7,500 scientists on its rolls, it wants to attract bright youngsters from top-notch institutions like the IITs with better incentives.

“Our intake of young scientists is down to just 70 per year. This is certainly not a good sign for an innovation-centric organization. Sanction of additional manpower at the rate of 300 per year for the next seven-eight years is essential for meeting technology challenges,” said DRDO chief Avinash Chander.

But it’s equally true that DRDO itself needs to be revamped and reformed. As reported by TOI earlier, the Rama Rao Committee (RRC) in 2008 held DRDO should focus only on 8 to 10 “critical technologies” of “strategic importance”, instead of making everything from dental implants and mosquito repellents to nuclear missiles and fighter jets.

Two key RRC recommendations, for instance, to establish a new Defence Technology Commission and a commercial arm for DRDO (as a private limited company with Rs 2 crore as seed capital) are yet to be implemented.DRDO missiles

मोदी ने वैज्ञानिकों से कहा ‘चलता है’ वाला रवैया नहीं चलेगा

Leave a comment

पीटीआई | Aug 20, 2014, 08.26PM IST

पीटीआई, नई दिल्ली

डिफेंस रिसर्च ऐंड डिवेलपमेंट ऑर्गनाइजेशन यानी DRDO को तमाम कार्यक्रमों में पिछड़ने पर प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी ने सख्त संदेश देते हुए कहा कि अब ‘चलता है’ वाला रवैया बिल्कुल नहीं चलेगा और इसे छोड़ना ही होगा। मोदी ने कहा कि डिफेंस रिसर्च बॉडी को अब समय से पहले काम पूरा करने की योजना बनानी होगी तभी हम विश्व में अग्रणी बन पाएंगे।

रक्षा क्षेत्र में लगातार उन्नत होती टेक्नॉलजी पर फोकस करते हुए मोदी ने कहा कि ऐसे उत्पाद बाजार में आ जाते हैं तो वर्तमान हालात से दो कदम आगे होते हैं और हम तब तक उनका अनुमान भी नहीं लगा पाते हैं। उन्होंने कहा कि ऐसा नहीं कि भारत में टैलंट का अभाव है लेकिन ‘चलता है’ वाला रवैया हमारे पिछड़ने का सबसे बड़ा कारण है। उन्होंने डीआरडीओ से कहा कि वे यह तय करें कि क्या वे हालात के मुताबिक तैयारी कर पाने में सक्षम हैं और क्या वे विश्व के समक्ष कोई अजेंडा रख सकते हैं?

उन्होंने कहा कि हम विश्व को राह दिखाकर ही लीडर बन सकते हैं न कि उनके पदचिह्नों पर चलकर। यह समय की मांग है और विश्व हमारे लिए इंतजार नहीं करेगा। हमें समय से आगे चलना होगा। इसलिए बेहतर यही होगा कि जो हम करें उसे कठिन परिश्रम से समय से पहले पूरा करने की आदत बनाएं। ऐसा न हो कि किसी प्रॉजेक्ट की रूपरेखा 1992 में बने और 2014 में भी हम कहें कि इसे पूरा करने में थोड़ा और समय लगेगा। उन्होंने कहा कि अगर विश्व किसी प्रॉजेक्ट पर मिशन 2020 के तहत काम कर रहा है तो हमें उसे 2018 तक पूरा कर लेना चाहिए।

उन्होंने कहा कि डीआरडीओ ग्लोबल समुदाय को ध्यान में रखकर खुद में बदलाव लाएं। हालांकि मोदी ने सीधे नाम नहीं लिया लेकिन डीआरडीओ के तमाम प्रॉजेक्ट मसलन लाइट कॉम्बैट एयरक्रॉफ्ट ‘तेजस’, नाग मिसाइल, लंबी दूरी तक सतह से हवा में मार करनेवाली मिसाइल प्रॉजेक्ट और एयरबॉर्न अर्ली वॉर्निंग ऐंड कंट्रोल सिस्टम प्रॉजेक्ट कई सालों से लटके पड़े हैं, जिस कारण इनकी लागत भी कई गुना बढ़ गई है। मोदी ने कहा कि लोगों को उनसे ही उम्मीद होती है, जो उन्हें पूरा कर सकते हैं। मुझे डीआरडीओ से ऐसी ही उम्मीद है क्योंकि मुझे पता है कि डीआरडीओ में साबित करने की क्षमता मौजूद है।
