On Sunday, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh stated that the newly opened integration and testing facility of BrahMos Aerospace in Lucknow will boost India’s self-reliance in the defense sector.
Speaking at an event in Lucknow where he unveiled a statue of former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Chandra Bhanu Gupta and released a postage stamp, Singh remarked, “Just a few days ago, I inaugurated the integration and testing facility of BrahMos Aerospace in Lucknow.
