Now Pakistan is on the path of becoming more bankrupt
After the terrorist attack in pahalgam, kashmir - SRINAGAR/JAMMU' target='_blank' title='jammu and kashmir-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW">jammu and kashmir, india took strict action one after the other. Today, on 7 May, exactly 15 days after this terrorist attack, india took its revenge of the pahalgam terror attack by destroying 9 terrorist hideouts in pakistan and pakistan occupied kashmir under Operation Sindoor.
Water strike, air strike and now financial strike
pakistan, which is going through poverty, is already dependent on every penny. Meanwhile, amid increasing tension with india, pakistan can increase its defense budget by 18 percent. It is estimated that more than 2.5 trillion rupees will be spent on the defense sector. This amount is a big deal for a weak economy like Pakistan.
During this time, India's actions from canceling the Indus Water Treaty to banning trade are becoming more burdensome for Pakistan. On top of that, india also carried out an air strike today. In such a situation, pakistan, which is going through a financial crisis, is forced to spend about 4 billion Pakistani rupees every day just to remain alert.
pakistan is strong in spending money like water
According to media reports, the Shahbaz Sharif government of pakistan is forced to spend about 13 million dollars (about 4 billion PKR) for deployment of army on the data-border, fuel for aircraft, sending goods to the data-border. On the other hand, if we talk about Pakistan's annual budget, then it is about 2.10 lakh crore Pakistani rupees. Since the tension between india and pakistan is at its peak due to the pahalgam terrorist attack, Pakistan's estimated expenditure on high alert alone can reach 11,253 crore Pakistani rupees.
India's expenditure on the army
On the other hand, if we talk about India's defense sector, then it is much stronger than Pakistan. Last year, india has spent about nine times more money on its defense sector than Pakistan. In 2024, india spent $86.1 billion on defense, while Pakistan's defense expenditure was only $10.2 billion. According to data from Swedish think tank Stockholm international Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), india ranks fifth in the world in terms of spending freely on defense to strengthen its country's army.
