But up to date I could not do anything except spreading my ideas. Now I want that a similar attempt be made in India.

The country has learned how to use other people's innovations for itself. India, incidentally, is not far behind China in this respect. Both are not nations in the European sense, but rather cultural communities with enormous markets. The challenge of the future is to work out how to deal with that.
