India's defence exports have surged to a record Rs 21,000 crore, a significant increase from Rs 2,000 crore a decade ago. This achievement reflects the nation’s focus on indigenous defence production and technological advancements. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh announced this milestone during his visit to the Army War College in Mhow, setting an ambitious target of Rs 50,000 crore by 2029. The growth aligns with India’s vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat, underscoring its global presence in the defence sector and its commitment to self-reliance in national security and manufacturing.
