While we talk much about our military, we don’t put our national wallet where our mouth is. Nobody is saying we should double our defence spending, but current declining trend must be reversed.
It wrote as naturetruth, I read as nature call. Whatever, what is in a name, pig xi and pubji all are same. And about becoming the second hub, there is a truth — no second hub is possible; but surely a better hub is possible. India should go for it. And on other blames written there, I just want to write one name — tien un mane.
Despite all the comments against India,this country shall grow,at it’s own pace,with or without Chinese link.Let’s agree that India is not autocratic like China,not fully developed blike US or EU.So we shall grow, definitely,as growth is the sign of life.No need to grow with break neck speed. Let’s agree that growth should be linked with equal distribution of it’s fruits and ensures happiness for all.Don’t get into rat race with others in the name of growth and development. I think we should take Israel as a role model rather than China or US.

Even without industries, India is already world worst polluted country, with global Top 21 most polluted cities, and a chronic water pollution. There will be no clean water for any industrialization.

All neighbors will leapfrog India in development with China’s 5G & BRI, making India the poorest and most backward Asia nation by 2025.
Chinese 5 cent army now starting to appear in Indian publications also.
Yeah, china also has some slaves in porkistan
Based on your condisending comment I would guess u are either a chinese or a pakistani or a disgruntled left leaning brit or a arrogant NRI. Narendra Modi has been effective in weeding out corruption and brought reforms from grassroot level to high end level. Simultaneously he has been reforming and reviving the indegenous culturr of the country which was suppressed during the dynastic rule of congress UPA. What you say would be true if rahul Gandhi had been prime minister. Granted there are a lot of problems to solve in India, dont make it as though China is problem, they created the pandemic and dragged the whole world into it. China is getting rattled by the sudden responses made in banning apps and boycotts, changes will be slow but see in 5 years India will slowly end up being more competitive to China. Stop living a dream, China is the most polluted country in the world, polluted by communism.

Congress has ruled India for 55 out of the India’s 70 years of Independence damaging India’s all capabilities and draining out India’s brain to the West. To-date the TRAITORS like Rahul Ganddhi and like-minded Mamata Banerjee continue to destroy India from ensuring that India remains an ultra-poor untr-weak country. India has materialized the dreams of her DESTRUCTIVE political leaders.
Are you a chinese by any chance?
Has GOI considered mounting defense costs because of China. Even if the costs are more, it is better to welcome any other country other than China. Nehruji was fooled by China. Modi ji should learn from history. Modi ji should ensure the downfall of China’e economy by ensuring that EU, US & all other countries slowly stop buying from China. The next step should be to declare that Chinese mobile handsets are risky to India’s defence & that a high tech team is looking into it & till then all mobile’s from China cannot be sold in India. A economically strong China is a threat to global peace & harmony. Indians are fortunate that Modi ji is at the helm of affairs.
