Its mandate seems to be to copy-paste foreign products and sell them to the armed forces.<br /><br />And when one has an exclusive monopoly over one of the largest armed forces in the world, then obviously inefficiencies will creep in. <br /><br />HAL is also to be blamed for much of the delays in the Tejas.<br /><br />So, let private players get technology from DRDO and ADA. Then and only then will HAL come to its knees.Abhimannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-21140610519189760342012-03-01T22:56:39.289-08:002012-03-01T22:56:39.289-08:00Suresh Kalmadi is a NDA alumni and served as a pil...Suresh Kalmadi is a NDA alumni and served as a pilot in the Indian Air Force for 10 years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-76944282250819272372012-03-01T09:57:42.003-08:002012-03-01T09:57:42.003-08:00Why don't we buy project management for HAL.

Only then i expect that HAL will be able to perform as expected of aircraft company in 21st centuary<br /><br />thanks<br /><br />Joydeep Ghoshjoydeep ghoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00038225081192821456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-69608652465639497852012-03-01T01:37:59.531-08:002012-03-01T01:37:59.531-08:00How come Suresh Kalmadi was part of this committee...How come Suresh Kalmadi was part of this committee? ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-74271355918081339452012-03-01T01:02:09.188-08:002012-03-01T01:02:09.188-08:00Suresh Kalmadi .......in the consultative committe...Suresh Kalmadi .......in the consultative committee :)Indranilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16469459445928900451noreply@blogger.com
