Yeah i checked that news article
it says
"shifting priorities from military spending to health care, especially for the poor"
this is very different from " Demanded that govt cut down on military spending"
Right now the indian government's top priority is Military spending ......Shifting the priority to spending on the poor does not automatically mean cutting the existing budget , but rather making / spending on the poor / the top priority .....
Considering that India is part of the non-alignment movement and has the largest number of poor in the world ...its not such a bad idea
Cutting the military budget definitely is not acceptable either
