I don't know if OLPC has been a successful program. If my memories don't
betray me, OLPC had problems because of some commercial conflicts with
hardware makers. I guess that India has got everything to achieve his/her
goals with this program.

This tablet is a complete fraud. Every 6 months the concerned Minister
(equivalent to your Secretary)  keeps pulling such rabbits out of his
(subsidy) hat.
