DRDO & MOD Units for Self-Reliance and Self-Sufficiency

No country would wish to part with its state-of-the-art front line technology know how despite any arrangements. Technology leadership in Aerospace and Defence is a 'strategic tool' and an instrument of policy dictation. This basic fact is reiterated.

Under these terms, we need to view our indigenous capabilities and the fact that we are a large-sized country which can not remain dependent on imports. It has its implications, strategic, developmental and financial. DRDO and MOD Units' Role needs to be viewed in this context; any advocacy contrary to it notwithstanding.

The Defence Minister's stance on the DRDO & MOD Units is timely.
