Nayanika's Notes
We need more R&D centres for a look into avenues where we can gauge and find areas where we can make a big difference. Sanitation and Environmental Sector is to be handled very professionally and with skills techniques which is state of the art NOW. We in India need to do it if we have to compete. - 3 years ago
