Security of the country is of utmost important and second to none. We do have many problems. They also needed to be taken care of but not at the cost of country's security. Singapore Whilst many may believe that AGNI-II was an extended Deepavali for the BJP, I think that India has to necessarily develop the minimum nuclear deterrent. As Agni-II has been classified by our Defence experts as part of the strategy, all Indians need to provide full support for the testing.
Diplomatic relations has to be strengthened with nations that feel challenged or threatened.
This is an area that the BJP has to put in a lot of effort. Further, a well orchestrated campaign on the PR front is mandatory. I was one of the millions who felt disappointed when Jyoti Basu did not take the PM's seat during the United Front regime. But today, his irresponsible utterances and his party's line on defence matters, clearly establish the fact that he is not PM material. The launch of Agni 2 was timely and necessary keeping China in mind.
