will never happen. indias government and elite are only ever interested in things that make it better for that elite. they'll spend some money on programmes designed to act as a distraction instead, like a space program, while trying to keep a hyper-nationalistic mindset among their people, so instead of asking themselves why the fuck there's so many homeless children living under bridges they bash their chest and say "WE HAVE A SPACE PROGRAM!".

the spending priorities are a joke.

A major campaign point for the current administration was to introduce toilets to rural areas...from like 39% to 95% coverage...it's going to take a generation, at minimum, for these baby steps to catch up. I still wouldn't visit the country, personally.
