Defense Minister Rajnath Singh
Defense Minister Rajnath Singh (Rajnath Singh) Chetak choppers in Hyderabad (Chetak Helicopter) K is addressing the Diamond Jubilee Conclave. During this, he said, in view of the events of the last few years, our government has emphasized self-reliance in defense production. In the past we have been in the field of defense production. (Defence Production) I could not progress at the expected speed. Like Maharana Pratap’s loyal, trusted horse, Chetak helicopters have served our nation in war and peace for decades. The Defense Minister further said, the burden of protecting a huge country like India cannot remain on the shoulders of other countries for a long time. We have to strengthen our own shoulders to protect ourselves.
While giving confidence to the countrymen, he said, I bow to all those workers from this platform, and assure the countrymen that the defense of the nation is our top priority and we are fully committed to ensure it. If it happens, then not only one person is sacrificed in it, but indirectly the whole country gives its sacrifice. Today’s festival is a celebration of honoring the hard work and dedication of many workers who have contributed in any way in the service of the country.
‘The whole country is not a part of the war, not the armies’
Putting further emphasis on the civilian helicopter, he said, Friends, through this event one more thing I would like to share with you. Whenever a country fights a war for its defense, not only the armies of that country take part in that war, but that whole country is fighting the war. According to an estimate, there are more than one thousand civilian helicopters and helicopters in India. An equal number of helicopters are in demand in the military sector. This is a huge potential in the helicopter market, which we must proceed to exploit.

The Defense Minister said, to become a global leader, we need to progress in the design of our own 10 Ton Indian Multirole Helicopter. In this, on the one hand, there is a huge potential in terms of market, on the other hand it is also an important requirement for our own forces. Indigenously designed and developed, the advanced Light Helicopter – DHRUV and its variants exemplifies India’s strength in this category of helicopters.
It is necessary to be strong militarily for security: Rajnath Singh
If peace is to be maintained in the world, then the security of the nations is very important, and for security, it is very important for them to be strong militarily. In the last few years, we have created such an environment that our armies, scientists and defense manufacturers can think proactively. Our country has faced many natural calamities from time to time. In them too, our Chetak has always been ahead in humanitarian aid, and disaster relief work. Chetak has touched the hearts of people. Our country will always be grateful to this machine and the professionals who operate it.
