Yeah we should have opted to buy sticks, stones and poison arrows it's available in our backyard save tax payers money.
It's fkin dumb and pointless,I personally hate pointless action,all these likely has no meaning in the end,will this lead to victory of India against china in case of war? not even a chance! will these lead to more development and higher living standard of the masses?actually the effects are in contrary. I just know everytime some weapons get procured,a select group of people are filling their pocket,no one else yields any value ,unless you count the internet gloating and trolling as something of a value.

In a major push to self-reliance in defence, India has signed contracts and cleared projects worth almost ₹54,000 crore in less than a month to boost military capability with locally produced weapons and systems, including transport planes, tanks, helicopters, airborne early warning systems and counter-drone weapons.

“The development reflects the government’s commitment to achieving atmanirbharta (self-reliance) in defence manufacturing,” an official said on the condition of anonymity. “The domestic defence ecosystem is set to become more robust in the coming years as we cut down our dependence on imported military hardware.”

On September 24, the defence ministry signed a ₹22,000-crore contract with Airbus Defence and Space for 56 C-295 medium transport aircraft to modernise the Indian Air Force’s transport fleet. Airbus Defence and Space and Tata Advanced Systems Ltd will jointly execute the contract. Airbus will deliver the first 16 aircraft in ready condition from Spain and Tata will assemble the rest in India.

The C-295 deal was signed a day after the ministry placed an order worth ₹7,523 crore with Heavy Vehicles Factory in Avadi, Tamil Nadu, for 118 Arjun Mk-1A tanks.


The Cabinet Committee on Security last month also cleared a Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) proposal to develop a new airborne early warning and control aircraft for the air force using Airbus jets bought from Air India. The deal is expected to be worth around ₹11,000 crore.

“Indigenous defence projects will involve hundreds of Indian vendors and generate thousands of jobs,” said a second official, also declining to be named.

The defence acquisition council – India’s apex procurement body – last week accorded its acceptance of necessity (AoN) for defence purchases worth ₹13,165 crore, including 25 advanced light helicopters Mark III.

India has set aside ₹70,221 crore this financial year for domestic defence procurement, accounting for 63% of the military’s capital expenditure budget. Last year, the ministry spent over ₹51,000 crore, or 58% of its capex budget, on domestic purchases.

India has decided to ban the import of 209 weapons and systems to boost self reliance. The ban, to be implemented progressively till 2025, covers artillery guns, missile destroyers, ship-borne cruise missiles, light combat aircraft, long-range land attack cruise missiles, basic trainer aircraft and specified types of helicopters.

All a smoke screen to divert attention from the piss poor economy Thanks to Modi's horrendous handling of the Indian economy which had contracted 13% during Covid.

"Idhar dekho, Idhar dekho Tank aur missile bana raha hai."

Last time I checked, you cannot cut up missiles and feed them to people.
 
I am surprised why India has not yet allocated any budget for spy pigeons & balloons that they keep catching over the boarder! :D
When are they allocating crores for indigenously developed buffed kabutars!? 😜 Apparently they can match everything but the kabutars!

Unlike GoP, GoI knows its priorities and requirements for its population.

more than 70% of 54000 Crrrooorreess are reinvested into Indian economy and these investments will be bring Private entities into developing local defense industries and eventually will help AatmaNirbhar Bharat project, vision of the Prime Minister of making India a self-reliant nation.


P.S. You need to update yourself

Though i will not claim 100% but "Swachh Bharat" abhiyan has done wonders in India and Toilet cover has increased from 40% in 2010 to 90% in 2021.

While international standard is to talk in kilometers, some nations (like US) talk in miles.
While international standard is talk in grams and kilograms, some nations indulge in ounces and pounds.

Every nation has their quirks, atleast Indian one is easily convertible. 1 cr = 10 million.
