Rajnath Singh Launches BrahMos Manufacturing Facility in Lucknow:
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh virtually inaugurated the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile production facility at the Uttar Pradesh Defence Industrial Corridor in Lucknow. Built with an investment of ₹300 crore, the unit aims to manufacture 80–100 BrahMos missiles annually, significantly enhancing India’s self-reliance in defence manufacturing amid growing regional security concerns.The inauguration of the BrahMos missile manufacturing facility has brought India a step closer to achieving defence self-sufficiency under the “Atmanirbhar Bharat” initiative. It comes at a time of heightened military tensions with Pakistan and marks a critical milestone in indigenous missile production, particularly with the production of next-generation BrahMos variants.
