You are not wrong overall but the mindset is changing. It wil take many years though due to the systematic and cultural norms. Most Indians are taught to do "service" instead of "innovate" because it has been a poor country with tons of competition for good jobs. Only in the last decade or so, the younger generation is realizing that innovation is important and even though the Govt. is mostly inept in encouraging this, I have seen first hand how the kids think these days and it is a good start. With more people moving into the Middle class, their access to resources is improving as well. May takes decades though.
