Rajnath Singh virtually inaugurated BrahMos Aerospace Integration and Testing Facility in Lucknow. At the event, Rajnath Singh described Operation Sindoor as a testament to India’s political will, military strength, and zero-tolerance policy towards terrorism. “Today, India is one of the most powerful nations in the world.

The Defence Minister highlighted that the BrahMos facility would play a pivotal role in positioning Uttar Pradesh as a hub for advanced defence technology. He noted that BrahMos symbolizes a collaboration of cutting-edge innovations from India and Russia. Drawing a parallel with Prayagraj, renowned for its sacred confluence, he expressed confidence that Lucknow, too, would gain global recognition for this technological partnership, which he described as a unique and powerful convergence.
As quoted by Money Control, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, said, “it is among the fastest supersonic cruise missiles in the world.
