  • Sometime last year the Indian Government had ordered a nine-member committee of experts under Prof K VijayRaghavan to review and redefine the role of the Department of Defence (R&D) and DRDO and submit a report within three months. Prof K VijayRaghavan is former Principal Scientific Advisor. The major issues addressed by the committee include:
    Restructuring and redefining the role of Department of Defence (R &D) and DRDO, as well as their relationship with each other and with academia and industry.
    Maximise academia, MSME, and start-up participation in the development of cutting edge technologies.
    Attract and retain high-quality manpower, including a system of project based manpower by a proper system of incentives and disincentives, with strict performance accountability, and weed out the non-performers.
    Utilise the expertise of NRIs/foreign consultants, inter-country collaborations for development of cutting edge and disruptive defence technologies.
    Modernise administrative, personnel and financial systems to achieve speedier implementation of projects.
    Rationalisation of laboratory structures and their performance evaluation process
    There were observations on the committee’s report, however, the government chose to go ahead with the implementation of the recommendations by 31 August, 2024.
    Views were sought of Dr S Gurupasad, a retired DRDO Director General, with our previous interview of the subject having hosted Lt Gen Subrata Saha, retired Deputy Chief of Army Staff, who was a part of the nine member committee.
    Dr. S Guruprasad explained that DRDO was structured by amalgamation of laboratories that came with their own cultures. He also pointed out that it requires time for a young scientist to gain intimate understanding of his area of research and possibly spend a lifetime in a narrow bandwidth to pioneer a new development. Research cannot be strictly timebound. It needs flexibility in planning and also financial outlays. Such issues as removing deadwood is required, but has rarely been practiced.

    DRDO can be a Vibrant Organisation. It has all that is required to make India ATMANIRBHAR, and now under PMO, it might as well start contributing towards manufacturing State of the Art Military Equipment. Kill Complacency. Just be Professional. DRDO has in it, PMO hopefully should act as a Catalyst. All projects should be Time Bound. Jai Hind

    DRDO must be removed entirely from the MoD, integrated into a maharatna PSU maharat a as a R&D vertical , like BHEL, BEML, BDL. Otherwise erect it as a stand-alone defence lab that can bid for govt and private contracts , float its shares and disinvest in it

    No change can happen if you show miser mentality and NOT pay properly for the work. You can go wherever, IIT to MIT, but if you cannot pay properly, no one will waste their time with you.
    Patriotism is not a proxy for remuneration.

It's delays are mostly related to international players sanctioning material components, and the defense forces making stretched demands within unreasonable time frames while DRDO acquiescing.

      Easy there. Farm laws were not unpopular. Not everything with protests in Delhi is unpopular. In an ideal world the communist unions would be defenestrated, but we're probably gonna see early retirement like the what happened in the ordnance factories.

      @@shishirsks ​ I agree, the BJP should not be intimidated by threats of violence and meet violence with the appropriate response. Especially when their supporters are literally murdered.
      The problem is that most BJP supporters don't like confrontation, leave alone violence. Many (all?) farmers who I know for a fact supported the BJP and the farm laws did not protest in favor of it. Also the farm laws were hurt by two things: first, no communication campaign before the laws were brought in, and second the BJP had no way of knowing who supported the law. They govt sent out a survey to all farmers but the website the survey was on did not work. It was designed by CDAC, an incompetent govt funded computing institute. This time (about a month or two ago) they sent a survey on Whatsapp which worked.
