The Berber, are a group of people indigenous to North Africa. In the Nalut district of the Tripolitania region, Ghadames, an oasis town is known as the "pearl of the desert". It is one of the oldest pre-Saharan cities and a grand example of a traditional settlement. Flying over, I was surprised to see just houses and more houses.
There didn't seem to be any pathways or alleys. Puzzled I flew down to investigate. I found that each house is built in such a way that it hangs over the alleys creating an underground network of passages. The ground floor of the house is used to store supplies, the next floor is for the use of the family and the open-air terraces are reserved for women. They were talking a language I did not understand. I later learnt it was Ghadams, a Berber language.
Towards the end of the month, for three days the old city of Ghadames comes alive with feasting, singing and dancing. It happens at the end of the date harvest.
When all the work is done, the people head to the city's World Heritage-listed old quarter to eat dates and celebrate. The people of the old quarter moved out in the mid-1980s, and live in the modern town. But, on this occasion they return to their family homes in the old city. They throw open the doors for singing, dancing and other festivities. The covered alleys provide shelter from the hot Sahara sun.
Q. Which part of the house is kept specially for the women folk?

It is well recognised that domestic R&D (Research & Development) is an important ingredient in self-sustenance efforts of the country. However, efforts being made in this regard require to be further strengthened. National Level Policy changes are needed to encourage indigenous development of technologies with focus on few of the specific aspects discussed ahead.
R&D projects in India should be supported by the GOI (Government of India) but adequate authority should be given to the CPSUs (Central Public Sector Undertakings) and other government industries to decide their R&D partners which can be from Indian/foreign private or public sector organisations. To support commercialisation of indigenously developed products, an acceptable mechanism is needed for risk mitigation. This could be in the form of insurance scheme to cover any potential risk over and above the normal warranties and guarantees offered by the product developer and funded through the aegis of a R&D cess.
As per the Research & Development Act, 1986, as amended in 1995, a cess of 5% is being levied by the government on all payments made towards import of technology, etc. The government should encourage R&D in capital goods sector and other critical areas of strategic importance by providing funding from this cess. Further, additional R&D funds can be created by imposing a nominal cess on the turnover of every company, on the lines of the cess on petrol and diesel for developing national highways.
In certain specific areas identified for attracting FDI (Foreign Direct Investment), policy changes are necessary to include transfer of technology to an Indian company as a mandatory condition to allow access to our huge domestic market. Along with it, the GOI should work on mechanism to give special treatment to developing countries for transfer of clean coal technology on reasonable terms and conditions and in a manner that contributes to the long-term developmental prospects of the host developing country. This must be vigorously pursued.
Enunciate a clear policy to provide incentives for the commercialisation of products developed through indigenous R&D efforts. The incentive could be among others, in the form of exemption from excise duty at least for a period of five years from the date of commercialisation. Moreover, huge investments are needed in R&D, skill base development and new technologies to foster innovation. For example, latest research in the field of combustion process, gasification process, nanotechnology, high temperature steels, etc. finds application in a variety of sectors like energy, automotive, ship building, etc. Such inter-sectorial innovations can be effectively steered at government level for bringing out the synergy. Policy framework must support such research involving various sectors of industry with appropriate funding mechanism.
