Maybe they have the benefit of learning from the failures of other countries? Not sure how much space agencies share information with each other.

There is always one comment like this. But fine.
It always is worth. These things inspire the nation. Instill pride. They work wonders. And India's space program is much less expensive than many other nations. India sent a rocket to Mars that was cheaper than the budget for the movie Interstellar.

India will become an economically powerful nation just like China is today. Just a matter of time.

If the money spent on that program remains int eh country then it won't be a waste, the country will developer high technology and experts. If they say would pay for US to send stuff to space all those money would make rich a few US citizens.
