Defence Budget does not deal with :
Answer: C
The defence budget does not deal with disaster management and mitigation.
India's defence budget pays for the armed forces: salaries and allowances of defence personnel, the maintenance and running of existing equipment, and the capital outlay on procuring new weapons and equipment. Disaster management is funded through the Ministry of Home Affairs and the National and State Disaster Response Funds, with the NDMA and NDRF as the lead agencies.
The armed forces are often called in to help in disasters, but that aid in support of civil authorities is not what the defence budget is drawn up to finance. The other three options are core defence budget heads.
