I don't get it. The poverrty rate and the infrastructure problems in India are enormous. Why are they giving away fortunes?

"strategically located archipelagic state in the Indian Ocean. "
The current government is very pro India, so much so that they are openly anti China at times. They literally have "India first" policy.
If $100M keeps the current government in power for longer time, should be worth it.
