The super powers of today built their economy first than the military. Let us downplay military buildup and concentrate on nation building. When we demonstrate the most sophisticated rocket technology, we must also remember that we have pot holed roads, power shortages, poor education, unemployment, corruption, poverty etc. Don't we have any technology to eradicate these?

Do you have any example?? To my knowledge all superpowers that became super powers had more potholed road, even at times no roads.
Again all these are independant things as par as effort is concerned. We have enough technical talent, financial resources to carry out all simultaneously, only thing lacking is meritocracy. but as far as economic development is concerned, it cannot happen without borders beings safe. Nehru thought on the same lines as you, and caused immense shame and loss to the country.
I dont agree with you with your statement. US is today a superpower partly because of its military prowess. did you know the highways of the uS were built during the world war to facilitate troop and tank movement? With neighbours like P** you never know what our most respected, revered neigbours will be upto. Unfortunately we dont have the liberty to ignore these important programmes. And remember, we are talking about investing a billion dollars at the most...that is nothing compared to the size of our economy and the prospects of commercializing this as a product to our friends outside of India.

We want to enjoy w/ our cinema movies like before & praise aish-abhi marriages etc. w/o worrying about what is going on outside, but you guys in neighbors constantly irritating us to get more success like Brahmos etc. All needs of invention is because of necessity. Who create necessity in Indian to go for these kind of programs so seriously.

Asokan is a commie and is jealous of Indian success. Had this been a Chinese missile, by now he would have congratulted Chinese scientists for giving a befitting reply to USA. These commie are curse to this country and have no right to live in India.
