| Summary / Abstract (Note) | It was surprising that whereas every country wanted to produce her own war material, in India, even very senior officials and Ministers wanted to remain dependent on foreign countries and government for military hardware and would not take any initiative for local production. These people did not understand that a country must not remain forever dependent on another country for her military requirement as, in the event of a war breaking out, that country could stop supplies, putting the receiving country in dire difficulties when her need would be the most acute. |
