US EditionBrahMos proves continuity in governance, ‘can’t be erased despite ruling regime’s habit’, says Jairam Ramesh
- On May 12, 2025, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh remotely launched a new state-of-the-art facility in Lucknow for assembling and evaluating BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles, established as part of the Uttar Pradesh Defence Industrial Corridor.
- The facility was developed to assemble current BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles and produce lighter next-generation variants, as part of India-Russia joint efforts begun in the late 1990s.
- Built on 80 hectares with a cost of Rs 300 crore, the unit will annually manufacture 80-100 BrahMos and later scale up to 100-150 next-generation missiles with Mach 2.8 speeds and ranges of 290-400 km.
- Rajnath Singh highlighted the corridor’s progress as a testament to India’s defence capabilities, citing a well-known saying by A.P.J. Abdul Kalam that emphasizes the respect commanded by strength, while also pointing out the corridor’s strategic locations across six cities.
- Congress leader Jairam Ramesh highlighted BrahMos as proof of governance continuity across multiple administrations and emphasized its role in boosting India’s precision-strike and self-reliance capabilities.
