Entrepreneurship and Creativity in teaching


I have been an ardent fan of Apple for long..but always ponder what on this earth stopped us from creating such things. Apple started in 1976, TCS is there since 1968, Infy is also of the same generation since 1988... And so are the other IT companies. Apple employs just close to 75000 people whereas Infy has more than 1.5 l and TCS is whopping 2.7 l. apple has revenues in tune of 155 billion whereas Infy is nearly 7 b and TCS has 10 b USD. With such comparisons, how does Modi’s and Rahul baba claims that we have superior manpower? The fact of the matter is that, we are naive. We are just followers; slaves who can work in a defined way of working, lowly paid slaves with abysmally low creativity level and can only provide low end services and feel happy blowing our own trumpet. Whatever the graduates our colleges are producing doesn't have the appetite and mindset to really create new technology. We can only survive at the bottom of the pyramid as hourly basis wage earners......dear leaders of the country, do you have any vision to bring change in the colonial mindset and revamp the education system . I would dream to see a Microsoft, oracle, apple , SAP being created in India and we not just remain the developers and testers and just being happy earning a few dollars in US and transferring back to the Indian account with 55 multipliers :( :(
