Drdo bangalore lab: After Operation Sindoor in 2025, India has given top priority to self -reliance in its defense sector. The central government made it clear that India will not only make weapons for itself, but will also sell them worldwide. The recent DRDO Bengaluru lab tour of Dr. PK Mishra, Principal Secretary, Prime Minister Narendra Modi indicates both seriousness and boom in this direction. This lab mainly works on radar and electronic warfare technology.

The central government has so far removed more than 400 weapons and equipment from the import list. It simply means that now they will be made in India and will be used by the army. The major projects that came out after Dr. Mishra’s visit are going to take India’s defense policy to a new height.
