I see this news nothing more than a question of massaging the ego!

A quick look at 'Bhuvan', a project by the National Remote Sensing Centre,
airforce fields & nuclear power plants were clearly visible. A direct name
search did not yield any results, but looking up via the co-ordinates found on
wikipedia, locating them was very easy!

So long as strategic locations of missile launchers is not in the knowledge of
the general public and not mapped on any public map, all should be good. Rest of
the installations are big enough for people to not know &/or notice.
