Great pleasure
At the CII Partnership Summit in Visakhapatnam, I underscored a clear priority: expanding India’s defence manufacturing base. We need greater capacity, more companies, and stronger supply chains to produce at the scale the times require.
Andhra Pradesh is demonstrating how states can drive this progress. The state government has established several industrial clusters, introduced attractive incentives, and taken proactive steps to support industry. This kind of groundwork helps turn ambition into production.
It was a pleasure to share the stage with Sri TG Bharat, Hon’ble Minister for Industries; Lt Gen Raj Shukla (Retd); Sri Narendra Kumar, Chairman, CII AP; and Sri Srinivas Raju, Chairman, SIDM AP.

Rafale landing on INS Vikrant is an important milestone...
Should India be investing more in procurement of expensive legacy platforms or manufacture of disruptive technologies?
My take: Make in India from fighter jet (incl engines) to UCAVs from a/c carriers to undersea drones.
Make in India Defence & Technology are good both for economy & security

The Indian Navy marked a milestone with the maiden landing of the Rafale Marine fighter jet aboard India's indigenous aircraft carrier, INS Vikrant. Procured under an intergovernmental agreement with France for approximately 64,000 crore rupees, 26 Rafale M jets are set to join the naval fleet.

India’s Union Minister @PiyushGoyal exposes Western hypocrisy when it comes to climate change and climate action. He speaks not just for India but for a large part of the world. What a classic smooth rebuttal!
Col Sunil Kumar,SC (Retd)🇮🇳 retweeted
#WATCH | Berlin, Germany | Union Minister Piyush Goyal says, "We are going to be a developed country, a 30 trillion dollar economy by 2047, and we will achieve it... On AI, we have a lot of work happening. In India, we have even startups working on frontier technologies, LLMs... Probably the largest pool of talent in the IT sector is India. So we used and leveraged what they have done and became the supplier to the world of talent to use those things... Similarly, we are not worried in the the new-age world. We are going to absorb AI, quantum computing, and all of these new technologies. Are young boys and girls going to be the only guys available to do cybersecurity and data scrubs..."

India is conscious of and committed to its role in climate action.

#BattleCry special with @palepurshankar, @SandeepUnnithan & @manjeetnegilive on @IndiaToday.
Must watch discussion on preparedness & Force projection along LoC & LAC
Gen P R Shankar (@palepurshankar) emphasizes that India possesses full indigenous technical competence in propulsion and defence systems, stating, 'We are completely indigenous. We have everything we need.' He urges the armed forces to move past procedural delays, avoid relying solely on established agencies, and place faith in IITs and defence startups through a mission mode approach.
Watch as @manjeetnegilive shares his views.
