This is what happens when you don't read anything about a subject and start commenting. The estimated cost is just 400 crore and the project currently running well within that. The rich countries including US are co-operating with India in this mission. They have contributed instruments to this mission to study areas that they are interested in. In addition to it, China, Japan and European Space Agency have recently launched similar crafts for exploration of the moon.
And you said mission objective is bullsh!t and in the next subject asked what is it? If you don't know abt it how do you know its a bullsh!t? Read the mission objectives in ISRO website and find out what is it before passing such comments.
And you talked about poor farmers. Recently Govt announced 60,000 core farm loan waiver thats more than 10 times costlier to this project. Definitely we have the priorities set right.
