India and Bharat are two sides of the same country. On one hand India is set to be the next superpower flaunting power, performance and paisa and on the other, Bharat- still struggling to make ends meet, survive diseases and live with dignity.

So what do you think..should the Indian government spend trillions of rupees on military spendings or use these funds to raise the standard of living of its people and make developments within the country ?

As India is surrounded by different countries so it is necessary to spend on military so that our borders are secured. Govt. instead of huge amount of funds on military they should more focus on R&D to develop high tech gadgets so that human resource required for military can be reduced.

Govt. start spending for BPL people as elections are nearby so lets hope that this schemes will go on by other political parties who come in power this will improve standard of living.
 
I agree with you siddharth..India being surrounded by hostile neighbors need to be on its toes at all the times. India's spending on R&D..be it in the defense sector or any other sector in that matter is among the lowest if compared to Nations India is looking up to. Though R&D investments cannot be directly mapped to their yields directly and not to mention the amount of time it consumes..it is the only way by which India can realize long term value and sustenance

Coming to the spendings India does for People below the poverty line..its not the timing or amount that matters..i think its the part of the whole amount that actually goes into work is what matters..rest goes where..i think we all know..:)

Another dimension u can add to BHARAT is Agriculture and with INDIA- Industry. It is very necessary to develop agriculture sector as it contribute only 26% in GDP. If our politician decide that if maximum contribution come from agriculture sector and they start investing in this sector this will give an extra edge to our economy. Also industry development do the same development.

We have lot of resources in terms of human and natural just we need leader who have clear VISION of putting our country on world map to be best in agriculture and manufacturing. :SugarwareZ-236:
 
Indian government has sufficient fund to invest in military as well as Raising living standard,
but firstly we need to convert black money into white money then all problem will be solved.
"Indians are poor, but India is not a poor country,"
says one of the Swiss Bank directors.:flame:
He says that "280 lakh crore (280,00,000,000,0000) of Indian rupees is deposited in Swiss banks which can be used for​

“ tax-less” budget for 30 years.
It can give 60 crore jobs to Indians.
The other uses of the money:
From any village to Delhi 4-lane roads.
Forever free supply to more than 500 social projects.
Every citizen can get monthly 2000 for 60 years.
No need of world bank and IMF loan.

Think how people’s money is blocked by rich politicians. We have full right against corrupt politicians.":SugarwareZ-032:
 
I agree with you Tushar that India is a rich country..but i am a bit skeptical about the Black Money issue..although the true rumour goes around that this Black Money belongs to the Politicians running this country and these people are also the ones who call all the shots in the end..We might think of the "JAN LOKPAL" bill to come to our rescue but as of now..lets be a bit pragmatic..as of India having enough money to fund military spendings and raise the standard of living goes..its better if we first look at the current fiscal deficit and then say this..so again it all boils down to square one..right???...CORRUPTION!!..so what should be done is what i ask..before an answer comes to my question..please ponder on the adage that goes something like this.."Power corrupts and absolute Power corrupts absolutely" :)
 
INDIA - The country of rich people.
Bharat - The country of poor people.

One survey i did in my life where we went to the villages and we found that Still there are people in the states(MAHARASHTRA,HARYANA,CHANDIGARH,) who doesn't know about the government, market,economy and many more such things which are necessary to know...that they don't even bother about that what is corruption and what there rights and fundamental rights...that don't know who is the prime minister even also...

Now about the JAN LOKPAL...people don't know about the importance of jAN lokpal bill...they just know that anna hazare is the person who born for them and god that he can only do some thing for them.....

This is not the just only reason....To change the country...to make bharat THE INDIA...first need to change the mind set of the people...need to make them aware about their rights...

yes...Corruption and Bribe are the MAIN issues...

If all this can take under observation then definitely there will be no difference between BHARAT nd INDIA...
 
I would like to second you Shweta on the issues brought up by you..
Ignorance does play a pivotal role in all this..
Besides when we say Bharat..our minds subconsciously paints a picture of a place mired with rampant poverty, illiteracy, unemployment and poor health conditions. No doubt there is corruption..but at the same time we can't also deny the multitude of development programs launched by the Indian government to bridge this gap between India and Bharat.
Is corruption the only culprit here or is there also a problem in the execution of these steps by the government especially the 'sustainability' part??
If Giving interest free loans to the poor and waivering of the entire loans sometimes would have been the answer then why would the suicide rate of farmers in Maharashtra still not decreasing substantially for example.
I feel besides corruption the problem also lies in the value chain the Government is trying to create here..
 
Dear prtk...I listed three main aspects one is of unawareness second is of corruption and third is of bribe...here i would like to add tushar comment..:SugarwareZ-141: to break difference between INDIA and BHARAT need to examine these....then only could be able to step ahead...i would like to highlight the today's economy scenerio i.e. THE INFLATION...does inflation really affecting the INDIANS...NO...high profile people doesn't bother abt inflation...it only affects the people like middle class and poor people bcoz they only knows the one rupee importance....why not there is diversification in the policies....Just compare the economy of Switzerland with INDIA...then it is clear that how the country progress...
 
Corruption is one of the main culprits..there are no two ways about it Shweta..i agree.. but the point i want to stress is that..Is corruption the only culprit?? We need to give this question a hard look..let me bring in a bit of stats here.. According to a recent report..the corruption in India is by magnitude the gift of the rich and by volume is that by the middle class. We only look at big scams like the 2G and the Coalgate when we speak of corruption..what about the day to day instances?? who accounts for those..yes the great Indian Middle Class!!

Coming back to the comparison you made between India and Switzerland..i dont think whatever goes for David will go for Goliath too..By Population, demographics, culture, problems and issues India is completely in a different league by itself. There is a huge socio-economic dynamism that comes into play when we talk of policy formulation in the Indian context and that's where the achille's heel really is and thats where we need to rethink our to date strategies..
 
why only we stick to corruption all the time...
As point out by prtk there are meany other aspect need to be consider for clearly differentiating the points where we lack. Definitely social, cultural, demographic issue are the factors which will affect the growth of a country..
Another point i want to bring in here is that there are many countries in world where per capita income is very high because there population is less and cultural diversity is not high as India. So we cannot compare other countries growth instead of that we should consider on the problem currently faced by our country and find solution for those...
