Induction of Tejas in IAF

Introduction and induction of Light Combat Aircraft in IAF today is historic and will augment our defence air power! Indigenously made in Bangalore by the pride of our country HAL, this effort is the outcome of Make In India by our PM and the encouragement given by the Government.
In one of the interviews, our PM recalled his discussion with the brains in HAL facility. To a question posed by the PM as to why HAL has not been able to produce a single fighter aircraft post independence, the super brains replied"nobody has ever asked us to produce one"! In all fairness, the previous government ruling the country for nearly 60 years post independence missed this golden opportunity of writing history that now rests with the present government under the able PM Shri Modi.
Similarly, he recalled his meeting with the top scientists of ISRO and posed a question to them as to how they could power a satellite orbiting Earth for several years? The reply was "Lithium ion battery!" He further deepened his quest to knowledge by asking why it can't be used for car batteries so that batteries don't have to be replaced every 3 years in motor vehicles? The scientists agreed and accepted the PM's view that it's possible! Next question to follow is "can it be made in India "and the answer was "Yes"!
Very soon, we may see all these motor vehicle batteries come with a very long life to save us from the hassle of changing it every 3 years😀
This is like Making Cheers in India😀👌

I received this forward from my wife this morning that pleasantly rekindled an incident that's still fresh in memories! It was in the year 1990 when my wife wanted to learn driving and be independent to procure household things on her own without having to wait for me to come back from office, to take her to places of her interest.

She joined one local driving school along with 3 other friends so that the Fiat that was the temple of their learning did not accommodate any other outsider! The girls did well for themselves and got their license within a few weeks too! Nevertheless, the confidence to drive independently was quite lacking until that Sunday when she wanted to drive my Maruthi800 with me seated besides! The gear never got the feel of 2,3 or 4 th gear as it was snailing around RA Puram😃
It was at the signal of the then Kaliappa hospital when she had to stop the car respecting the Red signal. After a while, the signal turned green and she panicked leading to non coordination of clutch and the accelerator due to which the engine stalled. People behind started honking and shouting that led to more panic and she threw up her arm in despair and requested if I could take over? I quietly opened the door and walked to the other side and started walking towards my home that was hardly 300 yards away, telling my wife to reach home as and when she's able to find co ordination and start the car.
Infuriated, ego hurt, she mustered enough courage to start the car and within seconds drove past without stopping despite seeing me still walking! I was happy to see that my action paid off and she could handle the situation herself!
Although she didn't speak to me for a few days after the incident, she became a driver of class and known as one of the best in the family😀👌
She realized later on that I was just holding the broken bridge instead of giving a helping hand😀😀😀
