Rich and Strength are two different things can u tell me in past India was a very rich and wealthy country known as golden bird but we dont have the strength to protect and what happen we were looted by almost all people of the world Well i agree with u that we have to focus on economy and infrastructure development but with this we must take measures to increase our strength so that we can defend our wealth for the we must also focus on research so that we have latest weapons and methods to defend and crush our foes.

Perfect...but there is a lot more things..We need to act when we need to act...I dont think the Govt has acted when it needed to act.All Govt says is stuffs like Everywhere in Davos its India, when prices and rates are gettin jacked up.We may have the weapons but if it is not used when its needed then cant help it...If in 71 or in Kargil, we had lots of chances.In Kargil why didnt the Army allow Airforce to be used in the start itself and Army allowed a lot of our jawans to die becoz of we being in lower areas and Pakis in higher areas.We should have bombed it like US bombed Tora Bora.Even if we are strong militarily, we dont need Military higher up's who are out of sync with the new battlefield scenario's.In WW-2 When Japanese were in Assam forest's the British poured petrol over the forests and set it to fire...Life of an Indian jawan is precious we cant allow them to die just becoz of Military people who sit in the comforts of their decision making chambers.What I mean is we mite have SU-30MKI and etc but if its not used when its needed then no use in having SU-30MKI.
