West Bengal to upgrade R&D facilities for drone manufacturing

The West Bengal government is concentrating on forming a task force to modernise the R&D centres for the production of drones.

In order to assure technical brilliance in the age of drone warfare, the State is eager to work with prestigious schools like the IITs, according to Chief Secretary HK Dwivedi. Reportedly, CII has been urged to host interactive sessions with MSMEs, ordnance factories, and sectors involved in the defence supply chain. This will facilitate the conversion of the emerging units into functioning ones. Lt. General Kalita praised the state government's initiatives to mobilise defence equipment in the east. He emphasised the imperative needs of the armed forces in terms of drone technology, sustainable solutions, and surveillance tools.
