Hopefully with the regime change in our country in the coming year or two, the new government would take a note of this as a learning cue and pick up the R&D pace.

When was China ever behind India? lol indians, even trying to accept reality for once but will still paint some colors on their funny face`

We are behind. Most of us agree. Heck our PM agrees. That doesn't seem to satisfy you folks.
Why doesn't it register that China could have been behind? I mean "could"... its a possibility ... we are not comparing our speed with with the speed of light you see.
For ex: GDP

We were a little bit ahead for some time.

Just like Iran so obsessed with USA. Thing is this that Indians want to compare their selves with China but they are failed in their attempt so at the end they walked away & saying "grapes are sour".

pakistani attitude of trolling everywhere..

Population does not have much to do with scientific research. Look at Israel, Hungary and etc.

China being 5 times bigger player then how can he compare India with China? Miles to go before sleep!

It looked like that Indian bloke was not talking about the pop size he's probably talking abt investment in r n d.

Israel is not a top 10 patent per capita country.

List of countries by patents - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Resident filings per million population

1 Japan decrease -0.3
2 South Korea increase 15.6
3 United States increase 8.6
4 Germany decrease -0.1
5 Australia steady 0.0
6 New Zealand increase 14.7
7 Finland decrease -9.3
8 Denmark decrease -11.9
9 United Kingdom decrease -7.5
10 Sweden decrease -9.2

Israel also is not top in citations.

Despite spending 12% of GDP on RD, it produces surprisingly few results. The "clever Jew" stereotype is just that - a stereotype.
