Bharatiya Janata Party

Strongly agree

Increase

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has historically supported increasing military spending to strengthen India's defense capabilities. Under the BJP-led government, India's defense budget has seen consistent growth. For example, in the 2021-2022 budget, defense spending increased by 7.34% compared to the previous year. However, the score is not a full 5 because there may be some within the party who prioritize other areas of spending.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

The BJP might partially agree with this statement, as they are concerned about India's fiscal health. However, their primary focus is on strengthening India's defense capabilities, and they have not shown a strong inclination to wait for a drastic reduction in the deficit before increasing military spending. The score is positive because fiscal responsibility is a concern, but it is not the party's main priority when it comes to defense spending.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

While some members of the BJP might be satisfied with the current level of military spending, the party's overall stance leans towards increasing defense expenditure. The score is positive because there may be a few who believe that the current spending is sufficient, but the majority of the party would likely advocate for increased spending.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

The BJP is generally not in favor of decreasing military spending, as they believe in maintaining a strong defense system to protect India's interests and counter potential threats from neighboring countries like China and Pakistan. A decrease in military spending would not align with their policy goals and national security priorities.

Very strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

The BJP would strongly disagree with this statement, as it is not relevant to India's geopolitical situation. A European military defense system would not address India's security concerns, and the party's focus is on strengthening India's own defense capabilities rather than relying on external alliances, especially those that are geographically distant and not directly related to India's regional security challenges.
