People in IISC are capable of saving them not India or world

Dislikes

They don't want to create or innovate. All they need is people with specialization in their own field. They don't help interdisciplinary people. Also they are only money minded and not kind hearted. So they can't help people get out from covid19. Instead they can scare them through technical words.
