There's nothing there though. Just that whatever we buy will require very high ToT. Just the usual diplomatic answer.

If IAF is to go for Su-57 or Su-60MKI, the stakes are going to be much higher than MKI

The Russians are at superpower level, including their R&D, we are barely even a regional power.

Clean Tejas mk 2 has similar frontal RCS as Kf 21

For now, the Russians are offering MKI-equivalent ToT.

He gave an expected diplomatic answer in line with political goal of self-reliance. All makers are trying to woo us to fund their future R&D.
I already mentioned + & - points of Su-57 long back. IDK how can Russians make such half-cooked flawed jet & not come up with a V2 of it. They treated just the nozzle. But as it is way better than Su-3X, so few jets as stopgap could be fine. But we should not let anything stall our domestic R&D.
Since 1990s IT boom, we have lots of surplus experienced techies now, absorb them into industry, take the big leap.
