Decreasing defense expenditure and increasing social expenditure is the need of the hour

Prefer indigenous made war material over imported by other country by this step we are not reducing defense budget but bringing self dependency. We are giving millions of dollars for buying AIR CRAFTS, MISSILES if we make them in INDIA it help us to develop our technology skills and reduce our defense budget, bring employment in our nation.

Defence is must we are not going to attack on any country. But if any other country is going to attack on us then we should protect our self first. Dr. A.P.J. Kalam had same thoughts. He said that power respect power that has same meaning. China and Pakistan have no guaranty. America consoles India and Pakistan issue. And at the same time provides weapons to Pakistan.

In my opinion, it is not necessary to decreasing in defense expenditure. Because our country's relationship with the neighbor country is not good. And the other developed country also doesn't want to go down. So our country is the target of so many developed country.

It doesn't mean that we should not increase the social expenditure. We can increase our social expenditure by other way. Like return the black money which is in swiss bank and many more ways to helping in increasing social expenditure.

Too much talk is already done with both Pakistan and China. Now its time to show them we are not among those Nations who silently harassed by anyone. India emerges as the new world power, except china all 4 nations in security council i.e. US, Russia, UK and France wants India to be in the security council.

India's GDP growth in the next 2-3 years going to surpass china. All these above example shows that it is the right time to increase our defense budget as much as possible to heavily guarded our borders and and allow our military personnel to have some advanced equipment.

I heel investing in social sector is more important these days because defense expenditure is already very high instead of giving a path to weapon world India should try to improve its relation with other countries. Social sector needs more so that people of our country don't lag behind.

Hello friends.

According to me we have to increase expenditure in defense sector rather than social. Now a days India is facing many terrorism attacks and fear of country's like USA and China because they are more alert in defense sector and have active militant power.

So, India also have to increase their expenditure in defense sector, so that all soldiers standing on border to protect us have a better resource to defend ourselves and can teach USA and China that India is no more a looser in defense sector.

Hello friends,

I feel addressing both defence and social front of the nations is the need of the hour. While defence is absolutely essential part for India to maintain its stronghold over the offensive nations and avert any future threat, it is also important to properly allocate the funds toward social development causes in order to improve the living status of people.

NOW THERE ARISES A QUESTION HOW A BALANCE CAN BE ACHIEVED ?

The answer to this is in house development of weapons. For this India needs to spend more on research activities and encourage the institutions like IITS, DRDO, etc to come forward for the development as it will help to save billions.

In my opinion, India should never be compromised with whatever it may be like social expenditure etc.

As we know, around the world so many attacks were happened. Recently in Pakistan 147 students died in Taliban attack. During 26/11 attacks Mumbai policemen were fighting with latish and pre-independence rifles against with terrorist laced with AK47's consequently several policeman had to sacrifice their lives.

In our borders millions of soldiers and personal guarding protecting us. We don't won't them to lose their lives just because we had poor defense equipment's and obsolete technology.

Yes, Social development is very important. In India we can see so many sachems for the people like PDS (Public food Distribution System) , fertilizers. For these schemes India spending corers of money.

Now a days every country would prefer to be advance in defense technology like US, China, Japan etc. Because they would prefer safety first.

For example if we spend a lot of money on social expenditure rather than defense expenditure. What should we do with schemes without safety? At the end, I am going to conclude is India should spend money on defense part.

Its important to make a balance between defense expenditure as well as social. If we are leading from the both side them only be our nation will be developing.

India needs balance between defense expenditure and social welfare. Because it does not have very good relations with its neighbors like China and Pakistan which are military strong countries so it must be cautious about its defense. Through developing indigenous technology based arms and ammunition, selling of old military equipment to other countries and reduction in rampant corruption, we can reduce our defense expenditure and this saving amount can be used in developmental activities which will ultimately strengthen our defense system.
