DRDO and PSU's

And this will definitely have its repercussions. Either we'll completely stop importing defence items or we'll do something to stop this "civilian interfering with hi-tech defence stuff"...I wonder which one's going to be easier.

From an year or two, people are constantly getting called out or even straight on abused. From WhAP in Morocco, to ATAGS, new Chinese jet, Uber MoU...no sights on rifle and people start tagging everyone from ADGPI to PMO to RM.

What're they gonna do, send assassins to our doors??

No repercussions beyond people who criticize ones-who-shall-not-be-named on Twitter getting the stick.

If Voldemorts are not going to change their ways by themselves, only the political class and babooze joining forces can put pressure on them.

For whatever reason(s) for the past decade most import was being denied anyway except for certain things like rifles or off the shelf purchase of Rafale.

At the end of the day however IDDM will be cheaper than direct import or screwdriver-giri so to pad the numbers of their organizations, Voldemorts have to make the choice

Jurnails and Marshlols have full motive for shtting on deshi stuff because they get kickbacks and favors

What does this guy get?

Proving his 'loyalty' to his seniors? Some sort of weird mental gymnastics to justify past failures of the forces? Some sort of ego boost too?

Either way, I think you guys are worrying a bit too much over imports. This govt is fiscally hyperconservative - they will never release enough funds to make way for the kind of toys genrols want in large nos. It is also why most of the past imports were inducted in paltry numbers (in the past 5 years, at least).

In foreign countries you have it the reverse, some "cutting edge" stuff is imported, the bulk is domestically produced.
for e.g most countries import carbines for the Special Forces but their infantry uses a domestically produced gun

but here

It's egg vs chicken debate. Who came first?
Defense preparedness vs Self Reliance.

There is no black and white here both must happen simultaneously.
This is the time to firmly stand behind indigenous product and trust the Industry.
Gormint has to facilitate Defense preparedness and Gnerails must facilitate self Reliance.

That being said the gormint has done disservice to the nation by not keeping the Generails in check. A few CBI enquiry and some court martials will software update the general's like how congress did for its own benefits.

My problem is not imports per se

It is capability gap of the forces viz adversaries in terms of numbers, leave tech aside, because of back and forth and tug of war between chindi/IDDM pushing Govt and import-loving Voldemorts wanting bulk orders of foreign toys.

Voldemorts know the Govt is chindi and will not give them the expensive imports in large quantities they want, but instead of making their peace with this like the Navy did many decades ago and start designing/developing/purchasing whatever they need from within the country, they are busy stonewalling existing projects like Tejas or ATAGS or MGS or whatever else.

So that the Govt is forced to consent to Imports, ofc this scheme to "force" the Govt doesn't work and neither the Govt's scheme to force IDDM on Voldemorts, and the winners of this are Pakistan and China.

A peace deal between Govt and Voldemorts can be a piece meal procurement of the allegedly HiGh TeCh and PrOvEn imports in exchange for large orders of domestic gear, but Voldemorts don't even want that.

I mean the same chindi Govt is ok with importing 26 Rafales from France for the Navy, but then the Navy is also gigachad and has never bothered the Govt for importing ships as the mainstay of the fleet.
