How is 20,000 Crore equal to $4 Billion. Last I checked the USD to INR was at around 67. By that calculation INR 20,000 crore is equal to around $3 Billion. Which means each frigate will cost around $750 Million.
BANGALORE: India is planning to test a new version of the Brahmos cruise missile on March 10, with New Delhi's entry into the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) removing previous barriers that capped the range of the joint project with Russia. DRDO Chief S Christopher said that an extended...
What are you smoking? We did the same to Pakistani Smugglers, just a week back.

Kon si baat ko kahan se kahan le ke ja reho ho.
Can someone elaborate what India gains by NSG membership compared to what it already has?
India has all the waivers from NSG that it needs. So is it to prevent Pakistan from joining (that won't happen anyways) or show China's true face.
Depends on the definition of development. Things are not going to improve much then what it is today. Definitely high chance of things getting worse.
But as long as Biharis can migrate to Delhi and Mumbai I don't think it matters weather Bihar is developed or not. Remember its the same...
Deaths due to famine is tragic. And the British were responsible for it. But famine happened in other places too and also before British came.
I see the partition more as a buffer from radicals from the west. Throughout our history we have been invaded mostly from west. Now nuclear Pakistan...
I seriously doubt there were 25% Muslims in pre partition India. I don't have a definite source but even if we consider today's numbers
Muslims = 200 million (pakistan) + 180 Million India + 150 Million Bangladesh = 530 Million
Hindus = 850 Million (India)
So its more like 60:40 in favor of...
Modi will lose 2019 (I will be happy to be proven wrong).
The opposition parties have found a template now to defeat BJP in two states where they won around 100 seats (yes UP and Bihar). And once those 100 seats are gone BJP can kiss goodbye to ruling the center.
Modi should have realized...
Agreed. The impact of British Colonialism lead to the best outcome for Hindus, a single unified nation where they are 80% majority. What they are doing with this majority is a seperate issue. Hence I said all Hindus should thank the British.
For Muslims, British Colonialism along with Jinnah's...
The sepoy revolt of 1857 was fought under Bahadur Shah Jafar. Guess whose rule it would be had they succeeded. Even if we assume that British failed and Marathas and Sikhs revolt removed Muslim rule, having 10 independent states is lot worse than having one single unified India and one Pakistan...
On a serious note...All Hindus should thank the British otherwise we would still be under Muslim rule. British rule provided many Hindus to focus on education and gain equal political footing (whatever little there was) with the Muslims.
Had it not been for British Hindus would still be ruled...
Sorry but you seem to forget that Jharkhand is a seperate state now. And all minerals went to to Jharkhand.
Bihar has zero minerals, zero industry and hence zero source of income. But somehow Nitishji will generate 2.25 Lakh Crores and Bihar will be the most developed State...soon.
And its not. I don't think any one here blindly trusts Modi. All the negativity has be around him for the last 13-14 years. And its the same now. Its just that people who voted for him don't believe in what is published by mainstream media. They will make up their own mind again in 2019.
But...
Blame the Government for non performance but don't forget the context. I have never seen so much negativity towards a new government - from opposition, media, leftist liberals, aaptards. This will only change if BJP gets majority in Rajya Sabha. If not then things do seem quite hopeless.
But...
