SO tell me ..... Pakistan does not have a space program but why still more than half of Pakistanis still defecating in the open .
Mate! Your info about this is incorrect and misleading. If more than half of Pakistanis defecate in open then this means Pakistan is at the top of the list, which is not the case. The true figure of Pakistanis defecating at public is very small. While on other hand the Indians constitute 59% of total world population which defecate at public, which makes india at the top of the list. The total amount of Indians defecating in open is 626 millions.
India solely covers 92% of people in South Asia who defecate in open areas.
(.......And further more these are the stats of WHO which I have quoted here)
Population of Pakistan in 2013 =
182.1 million
Number of People in India gaining access to improved sanitation and personal toilets from 1990 to 2010 =
251 Million
India has uplifted more people gaining access to improved sanitation and personal toilets than the entire population of Pakistan itself!

India should focus on reducing poverty rather than spending billions on useless mars mission.
India's Mission to Mars = $74 million (Unfortunately your estimation fell short by some $926 million)
Pakistan International Airlines Annual Loss = Rs. 36 Billion or $350 Million
We can sending 5 Mars Mission every year with the loss incurred by PIA Annually!
A much Practical Statement >>>
Pakistan should focus on reducing poverty rather than flying their planes in air which only bring loss and nothing else.
