Rajesh, if india is not self reliant, as u pointed out, should we be thinking of being self reliant, instead of crying about it and depending on others for our defense? Main problem in depending on US is, WHO WILL PROTECT YOU FROM USA ITSELF? Do u want to sit in the league of Israel or Iraq? Wolrd is still not globalized enough that we can do away with dependency in defense..or, just settle for being just a pawn in USA armer.
