brother,to have nuke weapons to a limited extant helps.neboring states like pak n chin will think trillion times b4 attacking us ...but india dont have(n shouldnt have) ambition to becom a weaponary superpower but a economic s'power.people of this country should live happily at the end of the day...what if we all put our enrgy in weapons but don have food to eat and electricity to lite..
taking side of US wont help.look at china...US cant dictate terms to china cos china is a manufactring super power.china nevr boggs down to US pressure tactics.i dont say india should blindly follow china but dint the truth is what we see 2day.
