The search for a permanent and coherent popular meaning of democracy is futile. The Pew report underlines this ever-evolving tendency of popular democracy in the Indian context.

This deployment by the Indian Navy Friday is a stark contrast to the submarine history of the last two decades that has seen the arm hit by dwindling strength, accidents and write-offs.
The ‘idea’ Kejriwal's politics grew around was a no-holds-barred fight against corruption. That is the reason Modi govt has now tarred him and his entire party with the same paint.
Have been watching this game from the late or early ’70s from Trivandrum
THUMBI was the name of the Rocket
It was ment to be a school demonstrator not commercial
MC Dattan was using his spare time working on this pet informal work
Looking at the Indian Environment, it would be a tough job to have model rocketry as open commercial activity
However on appropriate scale can be commercialized for Schools and Collage kits
Need to be associated with industry to know how to steer through legal procedures
Not knock at door to door
Using commonly available scrap, I have seen kids experiment with concepts
Does need only kitchen stuff for solid fuel, need not get stuck to black powder
The first model rocket was launched at night from Delhi’s ridge in the late Fifties by three high-school students. The model rocket consisted of a pipe salvaged from an old car exhaust pipe (“heat-resistant you see”)., about half-a-metere long; a balsa-wood nose cone (minimum dead weight), and was fueled by a mixture of sulphur and zinc powder. The payload was a mercury switch that activated that closed and supposed to activa5te a light when the rocket curved past apogee (did not work; the boys had forgottten about zero-G at apogee). The range safety officer was the late Wing Commander Situ mallick, then PRO of the Ministry of Defence. A home-made theodolite operated by the mother of one of the boys attempted to track the rocket — to no avail. “It was so fast”
How do I know all this? Because I was one of those school boys.
