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

According to my point of view, first comes security of the country then comes other social issues which country have to remove like illiteracy, corruption etc b/c we live in a country which has not good relationship with its neighbors like China and Pakistan. And it is well known that chain is encircling our country by making port in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and we also know the Pakistan good relationship with china and it is increasing its military power with the help of china.

So in these circumstances being weak in our military power means encouraging these country to attack on us. So there is only solution to keep these country quiet is increasing our defense power and that require more investment in this sector.

Hello gentleman's.

We the peoples of India are surrounded by hostile neighbors like Pakistan and china, well we all know that spending a lot of money towards defense really hampered the economy, in India there is a unique case we are the rising economy of the world on the other hand our sociology, economic problems are also exists, but decreasing the defense budget means to causing harm to our economy, countries like china has increasing its defense budget year by year and the war of conflict can took place any time.

On the other hand increasing social expenditure provides us:

1. Good human resource.

2. Provides greater economy stability.

3. Reduces backwardness.

So we need to think upon the alternatives to reduce our import rates of arms and ammunition and must tried to make weapons in home therefore by strengthening our foreign policy to eradicate our sociology, economic problem.

Hello friends,

In my point of view we should not try to reduce the defense expenditure. Because security is most important of any nation, at the current time each country is want to defeat to other country. In that situation we are not take a risk, but its also true that expenditure on social field is most important but I think both are the two face of coin both are most important for our nation,

Well lets just say we are increasing defense budget we are getting new weapons developing new weapons but how do we know those weapons we are bringing are agile and likely forward changing like even we brought a fighter jet it has a limited flight capacity in 10000 hrs and gas turbine inside this jet need to be replaced which is whole lot another cost.

So I propose developing a sound is great need for India. If any country comes its way against India we can develop weapons then yeah it may take time but we strong manufacturing facility. But sorry why anyone would like to attack us?We would burn their house to ground how we got largest population for fight.

What losing our economy is the thing there is a clear line of distinction between rich and poor it could severely create riots and political in-stabilization. The poor people they are not even educated as it seem to be.

So education must be more preferable than defense. Because education could create better solutions like Kerala's all round development. Do we even have power 24/7 in our villages?

In my opinion people need food and money to live in this world and starting a new projects every sector needs man power, why should not our government invest money in establishing our own defense factories which would make better weapons full of technologies and by doing that we can remove wide range of poverty from India and the Indian money will remain in India only.

So, I suggest that Indian government should decrease the social expenditure and increase defense expenditure because indirectly the unemployed people of India are benefited and also we can sleep soundly as our defense will become stronger than before and protect us from local and foreign terror threats.

As we all know that India is one of the most powerful country in the world and we are expecting tremendous growth in all the sectors in next ten-fifteen years. Now the new government is focusing on to reduce the cost of defense by manufacturing weapons and latest technologies equipment in India itself to avoid high import cost.

Defense is the back bone of any country and for that there should be any ignorance. Innovation leads to improve the things without extra burden on the budget and if there is requirement of extra funds for the country's defense that should be taken into consideration.

As we are talking about the need of the hour, our today's world there will be no such world war or nuclear war. We are surrounded by the nations like china who has a good economic situation than us but on the other hand Pakistan which is a failed nation. Like before Pakistan will try to engage India in a proxy war to destabilize India's growing economy.

If we are not going to focus in the defense issue, then china will show its superiority to India which is not a good thing at all. Secondly India's defense budget is not so high that we need to cut it rather we should increase it if it is the demand of the hour. Our defense budget is only the two point something percent of our budget and it is comparatively very low than china which is 9%.

In my opinion, India's defense expenditure should never be compromised for whatever thing it may be.

During 26/11 attacks, Mumbai policemen were fighting using lathis and pre independence era rifles against terrorists laced with AK47s. Consequently, several policemen had to sacrifice their lives. There are millions of soldiers and defense personnel guarding and protecting our country and 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. India is already spending thousands of crores on PDS (Public food Distribution System) , Fertilizer and LPG subsidies, NREGA and other Yojanas but the benefit is not percolating down to the poor. So, the problem doesn't lie in allocation of funds but in delivery of benefits from these schemes to the poor.

Both the aspects are equally important but if we are asked to select one then I would definitely go for the decrease of social expenditure because according to me working for the welfare of country is much more prioritized over welfare of the society and its people. We must never think our enemy to be weak.

So we must always be prepared for it should keep all preventive as well as offensive measures so as to protect our nation from its competitors because ultimately the society and its people belong to the country and how can a country be safe if it is not protected from the enemies.

So as a conclusion government as well as we people should invest on defence as much as possible so as to meet any kind of upcoming destruction and hence defense expenditure must be increased.

Defense budget is be kept high. If boarder is secured, then we can work religiously for society. Prime minister's highlighting make in India concept, we can go for indigenous weapons, provide easy training and development towards the Defense. The investment towards the defense so be mechanized, automated for overcoming the day to day intrusion.

We sleep well only because of 24x365 alert of our defense. If we are spending more on defense there is betterment of the nation and which reflect on society where people can able to gain sufficient time to think towards innovation, creativity, proper utilization of resources.

If defense is strong enough, Un-social activities like terrorism because of biasing by internal as well as external factors can be easily able to convert to social without pain and bring stability.
