India-Britain:Is it shame on part of India to buy jet for £13bn from one and courtesy aid of £1bn from other?

Will it be advisable to beg for a dole of bread on one side in the name of survival and yet same time spend hundreds on purchase of fences for in the wake of security!!! Absolutely absurd to hear & digest.... India-Britain relationships are at a high stake in the present frivolous times, and the inflammatory remarks passed over in the respective nations is arousing wild public anger in mindset of common public. There haven't been any issue in recent past which has made such large headlines & dubious discussions thereby creeping into the parliament of Britain; without any surprise over the issue even the MPs of ruling party apart from opposition are questioning the aid being given to India. While on other hand though little but some are questioning about the fiercely dark impact of stopping the flow of aid would have on the lives of poor, who hitherto were surviving on it, but there are enough arrows to hit them back asking India's moral responsibility and disgratitude that the country has shown. Questions like "whats the need of providing aid of £1bn when India can afford £13bn to spend upon jet contract" are very much obvious. There's strong fear of societies being crumbling up & spreading up of wrath between both countries;if questions and doubts of mass goes unanswered. Trudging sure wouldn't help, need of the hour is to take discreet steps. The facts on other hand do speak a totally different story. Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherji has been found saying "we do not require the aid" describing it as 'peanuts' in terms of India's massive development efforts. But Britain continues the flow stating the name of its electoral reforms which it has proposed. Even the former Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao, formally proposed an end to British aid from April 1, 2011, because of the "negative publicity of Indian poverty promoted by DfID(The Department for International Development)." But British ministers in the name of electorate and embarrassement that they would have to face if the Indian govt then pulled the plug; continued the aid. Though capricious it might seem or be, now perhaps is the high time for India to pull the plug and move on on its own terms and foreseen plans. Issue for instance has ripened more because India has accepted the offer of France which is arch rival of Britain and spent £13bn in purchasing Rafale. Though Eurofighter typhoon was poised equally with the Rafale, but India finally discarded British offer as it was priced very higher. Though seem logically correct in this sense but intellectuals from Britain doubt about India's morality quotient. Some even travel back upto the times of BritishRaj to stumble "How dare a former colony to boot of us to snub us?" obviously now its right time for India to move on and present a trace true to its tagline 'emerging superpower' without caring about the complains of moral obligations & lack of gratitude. The officials in India must remember to revamp their plans to ensure the poor of their well being in more sophisticated ways than earlier by helping them develop, prosper & regenerate to the glory they dream, desire & wish to be. Thereby silencing the detractors who are in awe of getting a splendid chance to question the stance of Indian govt on 'why have you gone in fixing the fences in the name of security when the members of home are dying of hunger?!!'.
