India's Vision: From Scientific Pipsqueak to Powerhouse -- Bagla 330 (6000): 23 -- Science: "n a new report, a blue-ribbon panel decries India's systemic failure to capitalize on basic research findings. The report, released last week by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, offers a stinging indictment of India's scientific frailties, noting that science here is 'severely hampered by oppressive bureaucratic practices and inflexible administrative and financial controls.' Titled India as a Global Leader in Science, the 'vision document' also offers a blueprint for strengthening Indian science—one that will require heaps of money to implement."
