It desensitizes inhibitions about the use of nuclear weapons. That could lead, innext to no time, to the outbreak of full-fledged nuclear war. There are no technological solutions to the problems of world security. Security can only come from our asserting effective political control over this self-propelled technological arms race. We cannot accept the logic that a few nations have the right to pursue their security by threatening the survival of humankind. It is not only those who live by the nuclear sword who, by design or default, shall one day perish by it. All humanity will perish. Nor is it acceptable that those who possess nuclear weapons are freed of all controls while those without nuclear weapons are policed against their production. History is full of such prejudices paraded as iron laws, that men are superior to women; that the white races are superior to the colored; that colonialism is a civilizing mission, that those who possess nuclear weapons. Alas, nuclear weapons are not the ony weapons of mass destruction. New knowledge is being generated in the life sciences. Military applications of these developments could rapidly undermine the existing convention against the military use of biological weapons. The ambit of our concern must extend to all means of mass annihilation. New technologies have also dramatically expanded the scope and intensity of conventional warfare. The physical destruction, which can be carried out by full-scale conventional war, would be enormous, far exceeding anything known in the past. Even if humankind is spared the agony of a nuclear winter, civilization and civic life as we know it would be Irretrievable disrupted. The range, precision and lethality of conventional weapons is being vastly increased some of these weapons are moving from being smart to becoming. So I can say with conviction that we have met the test of essentiality that Radhakrishnan spoke about I can say with confidence today that, looking at the history of the functioning of the House. Project which was conceived as a multi-purpose project irrigation, drinking water, navigation and power. If more funds are required to fulfil this, the government should make a provision on it. We should improve the condition of those who are living below the poverty line. Our aim is the betterment of the poor. So more funds should be allocated for this purpose. Rural industries should be developed.
