The arms development in India is defintely worsen poverty in India. The Indian government spend all those money and effort on developing a tank and airplane that at the end the Indian military won't want to buy. Why spend money on development if its not going to be mass produced. Why is India buying all those T-90s and MRCA instead of buying domestic and provide jobs to the people? Its either the corruption of the politician or bad engineers. In any case, the real loser are the people of India, especially the backward cast groups.
No it wont...India's spending is only $30 bn...What India spending is what it can afford...
(and India increasing its internal defence production capability very rapidly so even this modest amount is more and more going to go to Indian ppl only....)
China spending $200 to $300 bn..... whereas it cannot afford that much...it is paying through its nose...andd wasting all its money on weapons..!!!! what use are they when ppl dont have food, home, clothes... when China is just a developing country....When there is so much poverty in China.....when the living standard is so poor....
