Indian Navy is a powerful force

We have all been witness to the never ending arguments and counter arguments about procuring weapons. After the Bofors scandal all weapon purchases have ground to a halt.  We were only buying Russian planes and guns. Suddenly we decided to try French planes and now we have decided to build our own with the result that we have not been acquiring any weapons at all. Having the ability to make your own weapons is always the best option.  So making weapons in India is of primary importance and therefore why I am an admirer of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. It is time we developed skills in our country. So much stuff is coming in from China that India will go to sleep if we cannot get Chinese imports. They all started off by being very cheap but as time went by they rose in price and are now almost out of reach. They are equal to anyone in the world in terms of quality and quantity. We now need to increase our production skills and capabilities so that we can keep our armed forces supplied with the required weapons to fire at the enemy. This has become a serious problem for us because we had ignored RND for so long.  We are now facing huge gaps in our production capabilities. Fortunately the nation is finally embarked on skilling up and scaling up and I hope we do finally make our own top quality ships,  aircrafts and missiles so that India stays safe.
