Bharat's Companies like L&T and many other defense firms are accelerating for Mission Sudarshan Chakra, which plans on integrating defensive and counter-offensive measures to protect Cities and Critical Assets.

The Project includes integrating air defense and offensive measures to counter threats from drones, missiles and cross border attacks.

The Project aims to create a multi-layered, comprehensive National Shield by 2035.

It will combine Sensor Grids from Space, air and ground platforms providing protection even against Ballistic Missiles.

It will employ AI, Directed Energy Weapons and drones, making a comprehensive Indian Version of Israel's Defense System.

Let me clarify to my Viewers, it is not a new missile or defense system in itself, it is something that will integrate Various existing and upcoming systems like S-400, Akashteer system, and upcoming Project Kusha Defense system.

It will also integrate Indian Air Defence Command and Control System (IACCS) which will provide it an offensive capability.

A Committee has been formed under DRDO and Air Chief Marshal Ashutosh Dixit which will submit a report on this.

I feel this is a very big and positive initiative to integrate all defense existing and upcoming defense systems under one umbrella, it will significantly reduce the possibility of casualties during war like situations also keeping Cities and Population Safe without creating confusion among different systems themselves.

While Inuagarating the Skyroot's Infinity Campus in Hyderabad, PM Modi while highlighting growth in Space sector also revealed that the goverenment is planning on privatising Nuclear Sector of India.

He emphasized that the space sector in India has seen significant reforms in past 6-7 years resulting in entry of private players and ultimate innovations and achievements. He similarly also said that the Goverenment is also planning to do similar reforms in Nuclear Sector by privatizing it and enhancing India's Energy Security and independence.

He alsoe emphasized that by this change India will see significant innovation in Modular and Advanced reactors.

I feel it is a brilliant move by the Goverenment, and I really appreciate this intiative but also there are somethings that need to ensured if private players are to be invited in this sector which have been almost completely alien to them until now.

A National Nuclear Code of Conduct should be established regarding how nuclear technology is handled and to restrict it's transfer to unwanted entities, it is very important to ensure true energy security according to me.

Bharat is on the Verge of finalising a huge $450 Million BrahMos Supersonic Cruise Missile Deal with several Un-disclosed friendly nations. The agreements are currently in final stages.

These nations are said to be impressed by the operational performance of the Missile during Operation Sindoor. The missile's speed, ability to do complex manuevers added with it's newly earned combat proof has greatly helped it garner international appeal.

The Missile was Co-Developed by India's Defense Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Russia’s NPO Mashinostroyenia. It is famous for acheiving speeds of 2.8-3.0 Mach while travelling very close to the Ground.

It can strike with a scary precision upto a range of 450Km. This claim was further verified during Operation Sindoor when this missile was used to target and neutralise many Pakistani Air Bases for days. This has further increased it's international appeal both in South Asia and beyond.

The Contracts are expected to be formalised soon, adding to India's growing Export Defense Portfolio. One thing that makes it so appealing is it's versatility, it can be launched from Land, Air and Even Sea through Warships. It makes it attractive to particularly Countries focusing on expanding their Defense Capabilities.

I feel this is a very news and shows that Bharat is not just sitting idly on international platform. This will seriously help India in not just earning money but also in building pressure on it's enemies because we know India's Friends are at odd with what countries.

What do you think about this news and update and my opinion. Feel free to comment and open up.

After agreeing to Design a 120-140kn jet engine together, now Safran and India's Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL) have joined hands to produce HAMMER precision guided Air to Surface weapon system indigenously in India.

Highly Agile Modular Munition Extended Range (HAMMER) is known throughout the world for it's precision in modular design. It has been inducted in Indian Airforce and now is going to become the cornerstone of Indigenous Platform for the IAF for its own class.

The IAF used this same weapon during Operation Sindoor and was deemed as highly effective by the IAF in destroying fortified targets. The battlefield validation makes it a safe and tactically enhancing choice.

The manufacturing of it will be done under Joint Venture Cooperation Agreement (JVCA) in which both BEL and Safran establish a Join Venture Company (JVC) with equal shareholding (50:50). We can call it the BrahMos Model for Air to Ground Munitions.

The agreement was signed by BEL chairman Manoj Jain and SED Executive and Vice President Alexandre Ziegler in the presence of other officials.

This Partnership will severely strengthen indigenous production as technology transfer to BEL will greatly benefit the country and Local Producttion.

I think it is a great initiative by the Goverenment of India and a smart approach as after this, we can also develop our own, fully indigenous, better version of HAMMER through the technology acquired from France not only that, we will also get our own specific Company to research and manufacture similar better versions of this weapon in future that too locally.

Bharat on Friday implemented it's four major Labour Laws ensuring Minimum wage, Gratuity and Social Security for over 400Million workers. The goverenment calls this a reform in a decade old system.

Now let's jump directly to the key elements of the new law:-

1. Employment Formalised- It is now mandatory to give appointment letters to the workers, this will increase transperancy

2. Security Coverage- Now all workers will get security coverage like Employees State Insurance Corporation (ESIC), Insurance etc

3. Gaurantee of timely Minimum wage- A new dimension of time has been added to minimum wage which is said to ensure financial security

4. Preventive Healthcare- All the Employers from now on must provide free annual Health Checkup to their workers above age of 40

5. Compliance Burden Reduced- Single Registration, Pan India single license and single return, this will reduce burden.

6. Introduction of National OSH Board- A national level Occupational Health and Safety Board will be established to ensure safe working conditions all over India.

7. Women Equality- Women will now be able to work in night shifts in all areas, ofcourse only after their own consent and will also get equal pay and equal opportunities in high paying jobs.

In my opinion, a very good step by the goverenment, especially the National OSH board and Preventive Healthcare Initiative.

In my opinion, one thing that could be added was that a sector wise minimum wage could be introduced, which could show a significan shift from Minimum wage to ensure survival to Minimum wage to ensure Money for skill.

What do you think about my opinion and the overall bill. Feel free to let me know.

India's Defense Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has confirmed about it's pact with French Aerospace Leader Safran to Co-Develop a jet engine for 5th gen fighter.

Not just that, India has got the full Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) with full technology transfer. This means that now India can not just manufacture it but also we can study it also we will have rights to sell it to other countries.

A clean sheet design means a new start from the previous attempts like Kaveri Engine which will help us in studying and rectifying our mistakes.

This engine will be used in Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) of India and also the all the upcoming further fighter aircrafts. This engine will significantly boost the Range and Endurance of AMCA.

With this we have almost solved our engine problem for AMCA, and with this we have given a clear message regarding our preference between General Electronics (GE) and SAFRAN. Finally, we can say that dependence form USA for engines has significantly reduced eventhough Tejas jest still use them, but in the future we have shown we have better options.

I think it is a really good move by Bharat as the recent unpleasant attitude of USA towards Bharat and the delays in delievering GE F404 engines for Tejas Mk1a have made it difficult for India to see USA as a trustworthy partner in this matter.

Remember "Dependence is Okay but Over- Dependence is never".

I believe if things go right, Bharat will have all resources to design it's first own fully indigenous high power jet engine and will never have to depend any foreign country for Jet Engines.

Recently, two days ago in Dubai on 21 November, 2025, a Tejas Fighter jet crashed midshow while performing complex Manuevers close to the ground.

First of all we need to know that these complex manuevers include making sharp turns and even a single fault can be fatal. This is not the first time that a plane has crashed during airshow. A Pakistani F-16 Pilot named Nouman Akaram died in a similar way during rehersals. A Polish F-16 too crashed during the rehersals, killing the pilot with it aswell. So, this is not uncommon.

All India mourns this crash, but I have noticed that some people are mourning the wrong thing actually. People are mourning for the Tejas Crashed but some forget about the Pilot who lost his life. In the vdeo we can see that the pilot who's name is Wing Commander Namansh Sayal until the very last moment tried his best to recover the plane from cashing, his first priority was honour of his nation and he died trying to protect it.

What I am saying is that the Air Frame needs not to be mourned, it can be made again, what we should really mourn about is the Pilot lost. With the pilot we did not lose just a precious son of Bharat Mata but also the skill and Experience of a seasoned pilot, and that is never coming back.

To all the Family Members of Wing Commander Namansh Sayal, they have our deepest Condolensces and the whole nation prays for Namansh Sayal's Soul, he lived by the moto "Service before Self".

For his soul "Om Shanti"

Now about the other part. I anticipate that now many sources will claim that recently there was rumour that Tejas was leaking and now this happened, what I anticipate is that some people will try to justify this claim, but to all my viewers I would like to tell that these are all vague claims and let me prove how.

The IAF had actually sent two Tejas to Dubai Airshow with the serial numbers 'LA 5025' and LA 5026' Respectively.

The LA 5025 is only for ground display and this is the Tejas that was rumoured to be leaking but it was only condensed water, the one that crashed was LA 5026.

We all must appeal to the goverenment and IAF to investigate the cause of this crash sternously, was it really Pilot's fault, which is a possibility, but if it was the machine's fault, it needs to be fixed as quickly as possible to ensure that we don't lose any more of our skilled pilots ever again.

Recently, the MDL was hinting at Project 15C destroyers rather than project 18 NGD. But now, things seem to have take a turn in a real short time. Recently in an interview, Vice Chief of the Naval Staff Admiral Sanjay J. Vatsayan said that the Navy has made a really matured and good design for Destroyers which will weingh around 11,000 Tons.

This means the project mentioned is definitely Project 18 because Project 15C destroyers will not exceed 10,000 Tons of weight.

He further added that they are expecting Goverenment approval and AoN (Acceptance of Neccesity) in the same fiscal year.

The method for production will be SP (Strategic Partnership) Model, in which two of the lowest bidders will be chosen for Production.

This really is a type of confusion in the defence Community and we are closely monitoring the situation. Nothing can be said before further classifications by the Navy but by the recent statements, it seems like the Navy despite MDL's obligations is still pushing for Project 18 Destroyers

Recently, The MDL (Mazgaon Dock Ship Builders Ltd) has hinted that The Indian Navy before the Project 18 NGD (Next Gen Destroyers), is more interested in Project 15C Destroyers which will be relatively less heavy and Stealthier. It is said that our shipyards through this will gain more experience for producing much Heavier Project 18 Destroyers.

The thing is how can we Maximise our production capacity and with quality also make sure of quantity? I suggest that the key of this is "Additional Orders". Let me explain.

Lets say, the Indian Navy orders 6 Destroyers Under project 15C initially. The navy after production and commisioning of these initial 6 Destroyers SHOULD order additional 2 Destroyers and meanwhile should start designing phase of larger Project 18 Destroyers, the designs will be ready while the additional destroyers will be inducted.

What this will do?

1. Quantitative Expansion- We will be able to expand the size of our fleet with these additional orders, they may seem small at first but these small numbers will one day show big results.

2. Efficiency Ensured- This way, the whole system of Production of warships will always be active because after initial orders, there will always be scope for additional orders (Like recently with Kaveri class submarine additional orders). This way it will be ensured that the system is always on work and this will significinatly enhance efficiency and reduce stagnation. After the additional orders are fulfilled, they will immediately get new orders, this way the continuity will always remin, which is the key for both quantity and efficiency.

Yes, this will require more money but in defence sometimes you gotta set up your priorities straight and spend. This can be applied in not just this case or project but all of the upcoming ones as well.

What do you think about my this plan, feel free to give your opinion or suggest your own ways for our Navy to get stronger. In the end, even if our views clash, we must remember that our ways maybe different but our goal is th same, a stronger and a better Bharat.

As we had mentioned before in one of our Posts before, the Navy and the MDL were choosing between Project 18 also known as NGD and Project 15C, the Successor of Project 15B destroyers. It seems by the recent interviews of MDL officials that advance talks have begun for Project 15C, which can be considered a significant jump from Project 15B. Several analysts say that this project is introduced because Indian Navy wants quick, low risk increment before committing to NGD which cost around 80.000-1,00,000 Crore Rupees.

This Project will include 4-6 destroyers according to the Navy's desire. Each destroyer will weigh around 8,500-9,500 tons with their length being 165-170m. They are said to be equipped with 48-64 Universal Vertical Launch System (UVLS). They will have missiles like Brahmos, Barak 8 and future Vertical Launch-Short Range Surface to Air Missile (VL-SRSAM).

I feel it is a good approach but I also feel we should also consider some other aspects, most important of them being 'Quantity'. Many of our destroyers like Kolkata Class destroyers are getting old and if we want to Acheive our Mission of 300 Warships by 2030-35, we need to also focus on Quantity like our Arch-Rival. We need to invest more in Defence overall, we should order atleast 7-8 destroyers under each project, this can be done only in two ways, one by compromising on quality which is not an option, second by increasing our Budget. If we really need to grow then some costs cannot be neglected.

What can be done in this case according me is that we can first initially order 6 Project 15C destroyers and after they are delievered we can place an order of additional two destroyers (Similarly to what we did with Kalvari Class Submarines) and simulataneously start working on design of Project 18 NGD destroyers. This way we can make sure of both 'Quality' and 'Quantity'.

What do you think about my idea and what are your opinions on this topic or on how Navy and Gverenment should approach such Matters, please do let us know.

The MDL(Mazgaon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd) is anticipating the start of one of the biggest destroyer acquisition plan by the Indian Navy also known as Project 18 Next Generation Destroyers.

These Destroyers will be the largest ever built in India and by that you can anticipate that they will be the first f their class. Some sources even anticipate that ships of this size and weight should come under Cruiser Class, so we can also call it as India' first Cruiser Project. Each Vessel is estimated to weigh around 10,000 Tons.

However some sources also say the project anticipated could also be Project 15c, a follow on of Project 15b destroyers also called Vishakapatnam Class Destroyers. This variant will be more advance and stealthy.

This whole project is estimated to cost around 70,000-80,000Cr Rs ($8-9 Billion).

So in both the cases, it's a win-win for us and our Navy.

It seems most of the people only barely remember what happened a few months ago in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. Due to a Faulty Cough Syrup, namely 'Dextromethorphin Hydrobromide' several young innocent souls lost their lives. Great outrage was seen back then, but what now? Where is the Anger, Desire for Change. Nobody even knows what the Goverenment regarding this issue. Sending Notices to a company is one thing but what happened that day was not just a Company's failure but the whole system's failure, a system which fails to find faults is a useless system.

That is why I introduce a solution to this problem.

For a very long time, there have been only talks that the State FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and CDSCO (Central Drugs Standard Control Organization) need to improve their coordination and no action has been taken. The Current structure is that each batch of medicine first goes to the State FDA for assesemnt and approval. If approval is provided, the medicine is released in Market, if not, then it goes to CDSCO for reassesement, if the batch still does not get approval, the batch is cancelled, if approved it is released in Market. My reform Proposal has 3 newly introduced Sub- Reform, which are:-

1. The State FDA and State wing of CDSCO and all the Zonal and Sub-Zonal Ofiices of CDSCO (Of the respective state) need to be merged to form a Unified Drug and Medicine Control Authority(UDMCA) in states where these events are very common or I would even say in all states. Point to be noted that the Individuality of each organisation namely State FDA and CDSCO will remain, their individual tasks like Licensing a medicine in their respective state will still remain and will be carried out in the name of State FDA. Only in the matter of Assesement of Batches of Medicine, this centralised organisation will come in play. Approval to each batch will be given in the name of UDMCA. This will enhance Responsibility as now there will be only one organsiation to blame if things go wrong. Also there will be improve in coordination, lack of which has been a major cause of the mess that has been happening before.

2. "Three Strike Rule" I call this the Three Strike rule. The Current structure is that each batch of medicine first goes to the State FDA for assesemnt and approval. If approval is provided, the medicine is released in Market, if not, then it goes to CDSCO for reassesement, if the batch still does not get approval, the batch is cancelled, if approved it is released in Market. I suggest that even if after the rejection of State FDA the CDSCO approves the batch of medicines, still after the approval of CDSCO in the UDMCA, it will still need the approval of the respective State FDA. If again rejected, it will again go to the CDSCO for approval, also at this time State FDA due to being in UDMCA with CDSCO, will coordinate and keep it's views on why rejecting the batch. If the CDSCO again approves it but upon State FDA approval the third time, it still fails, then the batch will be Cancelled. This will enhance coordination and Security and the Fishy medicines will be Checked multiple times to avoid casualties.

3. Zonal and Sub-Zoanal CDSCO Notification:- The CDSCO also has many Zonal and Sub-Zonal Ofiices in all the districts. What they do is that they take medicines from the market itself and do tests on them. If the medicines are found unfit, it reports to the Higher authorities for action. What I think it should also do is that it should release a Notification in the UDMCA as well regarding the medicine that failed in the fitness test, upon this notifiaction, the medicine of that specific company should be assesed more strictly by both State FDA and State wing of CDSCO and if required also halt the release of that medicine if required. There was no procedure regarding this in the current system and I thought it was important enough and would make this framework formal enough, so I added it.

I know guys, not only this but other things are required as well for this system of mine to succeed like training of fresh and new officers for UDMCA, which will ensure it's smooth functioning etc.

This was my view and my opinion on this topic. And I will be very glad if you could review this structure of mine and please, don't hesitate in Criticising or Praising my syatem, also if you have ideas for improving this system, please feel free to share your views and enlighten us. I told about this system of mine to a relative of mine who works in MPFDA (Madhya Pradesh Food and Drug Authority) and he liked it and called this very practical so thought it was worth sharing.

Please Join our Community 'BharatReforms' because there we discuss exactly such things, events and their solutions at systemic Level.

With this said, Adios, we will meet agin very soon.

You must have had seen the recent Video that claimed that Tejas Mk-1 of India and one of the best in it's class was leaking oil in Dubai Air Show. We are going to bust this propoganda of some Poor people from a specific country. So let's begin.

First of all, let's understand what was that was seen flowing out of the plane, it was actually WATER. Let's dig deep. When the Engine of the plane is on, it traps some air that is called 'Bleed Air'. This air is very high pressurised and it has no practical applications, however upon reducing it's pressure, it is of great use. It is used for maintaining Cockpit Pressure, mostly, to do so this Bleed Air goes through Condensation (Some People from a specific Country don't read about this in their textbooks) which produces water which needs to flow out. The same mechanism is also present in F-35.

These Arguements sometimes make me feel these guys don't even have AC in their house and those who have (Children of military Officials) have centralised ACs, so these desperate guys really don't have ACs, so I can't really blame them.

The Delhi Supreme Court has allowed Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) to take proactive measures in both long and short term to reduce pollution. The Problem with this is how late it was actually given.

I suggest that to avoid it in future, a certain limit should be set that if "Air Pollution exceeds this much AQI then total control will be given to the Commission"

The main problem is that this issue of Air Quality is not only with Delhi, but also many other Cities and that is why I suggest each city with too high AQI, should have such similar commission and it's work should be to give suggestions to muincipality and State Goverenment to reduce Air pollution. And in areas where all the parameters of Pollution like Garbage, Water Pollution is exceeding, there should be pollution control Commission and there should also be a limit if pollution exceeds a specific limit, this commisions specific demands must be accepted.

What do you think overall about it and this news? Do let me know.

Pakistan and Afghanistan have traded claims of seizing each other’s border posts, as border clashes between their militaries intensify following an air strike on Kabul earlier this week.

The Taliban on Sunday said it had captured three Pakistani border posts during its retaliatory attacks at seven points along the border.
