Dr. Kurien showed what Indians can achieve when given a free hand. India's problems are all because of the self centered politicians. May his soul rest in peace.

Such instituition builders leave behind a legacy.
Dr K had the foresight to spot & nurture talent.

[3] Names like Ela Bhatt (SEWA),M S Swaminatahn (Green Revolution),E. Sreedharan (Delhi Metro) ALSO come to mind when one salutes committed persons who delivered tangible results despite huge challenges.
A true son of India. His service to the nation is immeasurable. Unfortunately Bharat Ratna is collected by fake Gandhi family and such deserving people dont get it.
The end of a legend, a true hero of India who made such a great difference to our poor society and nation. May his soul rest in peace. I salute such a great hero, great Indian..
