Answer:
APJ Abdul Kalam describes the role of visionary Indian
scientists, such as Dr Vikram Sarabhai, and of the creation
of a coordinated network of research institutions. This is
also the saga of independent India’s struggle for technological self-sufficiency and defensive autonomy – a story as much about politics, domestic and international, as it is about science. Prof. Sarabhai was always keen on trying novel ideas and he liked to rope in young people to do that. He was an innovator. He had a lot of faith in the capabilities of youth and novice.
This was precisely the situation at INCOSPAR in the early sixties. A group of young and inexperienced, but energetic and enthusiastic persons who had been given the task of shaping the Indian spirit of self-reliance in the field of science and technology in general and of space research in particular. Their biggest qualification at INCOSPAR were not their degrees and training, but Prof. Sarabhai's faith in their capabilities. It was a great example of leadership by trust.
Prof. Sabhai’s optimism was highly contagious. The very news of his coming to Thumba would electrify the people, and all laboratories, workshops and design offices would hum with unceasing activity. People would work around the clock in their enthusiasm to show Prof. Sarabhai something new something that had not been done before in our country.
