Its only a dream so don't get too excited yet. India is being blocked
entry into the international space station project. China has an even
lesser chance of gaining entry. So why not India & China collaborate
on :
a) an unmanned robotic mission to mars followed by
b) an Asian space station
both can share the cost and benefits.
>From there on, the sky is the limit. A deep field space telescope, an
experimental power station, trips to various moons and planets to
search for life, a hotel in space, a colony on the moon followed by
mars...etc.

India seeks Russian help to join ISS project.

How about both of them first making sure the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of beggars
and homeless hobbits in their country have food, a roof over their heads and
a job before them embarking on these megalomanic projects.

The Planet Earth is overpopulated to many times its natural carrying
capacity powered by fossil fuels. Those many billions of people will
never have those things without the colonization of space. Period.
Call it reality. That's the harsh reality you face.

By that logic, the US should never have undertaken it's Space Program
given the problems of both the huge black underclass and the
increasing numbers of poor (and often illegal) Latino immigrants. As
for Russia it's a basketcase with an economy worse than Mexico or
Brazil (in both gross and per capita terms) so it should completely
junk its space program.....do I have you right?

The same arguments have been made about the US space program, so why do we
have one?
