Re: Govt to stop buying INSAS rifles from Ordnance Factory Tiruchirapp
Also why the hell are they trying to produce so called "local" guns which appear to be coming straight from 1970s better get transfer of tech like for AK103 and produce the damn thing at lower cost.
Problem is that also they cannot do INSAS price is high so i would prefer we take the western model defence industry privatise only non-performing dinosaurs.
By not privatising them you are adding more burden and even though the MoD pays them hard bucks it cannot expect client-seller relationship add to that inherent inefficiencies in PSU.I have a different take.
Govt. should encourage private companies to set up factories in India, and the OFB factories should compete with these private factories. I am totally against selling OFB factories, because, we need to expose them to competition and give them the opportunity to improve. Even if they can't, then we can think of selling them off.
