Well, I would like to contest that claim. Taken from Wikipedia, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-satellite_weapon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-satellite_weapon - >>On February 10, 2010, Defence Research and Development Organisation Director-General and Scientific Advisor to the Defence Minister, Dr VK Saraswat stated that India had "all the building blocks necessary" to integrate an anti-satellite weapon to neutralize hostile satellites in low earth and polar orbits. Indian scientists were working in this since at least 2010, and this mission has bore fruition only when it was to. Demonetization was totally current PM’s decision, but the successful testing of A-SAT was in the making since at least a decade.
