Mr. Mudy and all others,
Tahnk you for the info. The point I am trying to make is why cant we utilize defence institutions for infrastructural needs of the nation?
i.e. A private firm gets a govt contract to build roads in Delhi, the firm approaches the army and seeks its engineers. In return a payment is made to relief fund or to the army budget, which in turn comes back to the govt.
The firm is happy, it got its job done, army is happy it got funds, govt is happy becasue the funds eventually found its way back to govt.
Now the army has a surplus in its budget. It can hire private R&D for new weapon systems while civilian applications can be used as well.
I dont know if I able to project my views correctly. [lets find out]
