Operation Sindoor: A New Era of Indigenous Defence Empowerment

INDIA, AUG 9 – Operation Sindoor demonstrated India's self-reliance with indigenous technology including missiles and AI support, impacting border security and inspiring 298 graduates at DIAT convocation.

  • On Saturday, Samir V. Kamat, DRDO Chairman, said Operation Sindoor was a declaration of India's ability to stand tall through self-reliance, strategic foresight and indigenous technological strength.
  • On May 7, the Indian armed forces launched Operation Sindoor in Pakistan after the April 22, 2025, Pahalgam attack, executing a multidimensional strike along the western borders.
  • Kamat highlighted the operation's technological backbone, noting it relied on sensors, unmanned platforms, secure communications, AI-based decision support, and precision weaponry, deploying indigenous systems such as Akash missiles and BrahMos cruise missiles.
  • Over 100 terrorists were reportedly neutralised, and strikes damaged key Pakistani assets including Murid and Chaklala command centres, radars, air defence systems and hangars.
  • Kamat said, 'over the next two to three years, exports are expected to double and reach Rs 50,000 crore by 2029,' according to the source.
