A K Anthony's definition of honesty- Do not do anything, if you dont do anything, then nothing happens, if nothing happens then there is no chance of corruption.
What a way to end corruption.
The result is that defence deals are on hold for the past 10 years or so.
And the defence equipment have become outdated and redundant.
The Light Combat Aircraft ( LCA ) the amitious multi role aircraft project was started when I was in School, long long back, now my son is in school and the Aircraft is still not out of the production stage.
Even if it does come out 10 - 20 years from now, what sort of technology would it be having, technology of 30 years back. The the defence ministry will try to sell it to the Air Force, by force.
This what has been happening to our Armed Forces over the past so many years.
Whereas the SPG which protects PM, Sonia etc is having the latest equipment, the same equipment is not available to the Black Cat Commandos.
All political Parties are now crying hoarse that they will never compromise on matters of National Security, but there is no party which has not made money through murky defence deals.
But then there are always 2 reasons for doing anything 1) The real reason 2) the reason that will be told to others.
