Today\u2019s warfare has become completely technology-oriented. We have seen a demonstration of this in Operation Sindoor as well,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this, we observed that the importance of non-contact warfare, such as drones, anti-drone warfare, and air-defense systems, has significantly increased,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Singh also listed goals in the defence sector to realise India\u2019s overall aim to become a developed country by 2047.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst is that we must achieve a high degree of self-reliance in the critical defence capabilities. Second, we must become a prominent global exporter in the defence sector,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThird, to take India forward in cutting-edge technology sectors, we must achieve advancements in some new niche technologies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33448\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33448\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-33448\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"India sourced military hardware worth Rs 1.20 lakh crore in 2024-25: Rajnath Singh\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-549x366.jpg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-233x155.jpg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-230x153.jpg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-358x239.jpg 358w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2P3UwOWkAAhm3e-1024x683-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33448\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">India sourced military hardware worth Rs 1.20 lakh crore in 2024-25: Rajnath Singh<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI: India procured military hardware and weapons worth Rs 1,20,000 crore from domestic sources by end of 2024-25 as it is increasingly focusing on boosting self-reliance to confront national security challenges, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Tuesday.
