<The [Kargil] Committee noted that the infantry, which primarily bears the
responsibility for guarding the high-altitude borders, needs to be equipped
with lighter rifles, greater firepower and better equipment. Today, the
grandly-named Infantry Modernisation Plan still draws mere driblets of
funding while **the bulk of India's defence expenditure goes on big-ticket
items like aircraft carriers, submarines, tanks and fighter aircraft, which
may never be used in the kind of wars that India will fight.**> And some of
these are eventually based in peaceful and peace-loving Goa wrecking its
socio-economic development for the country's sake! Kyrie elison!
