NEW DELHI: In order to create a powerful weapon system to thwart any attempt by enemies, India will be launching Mission Sudarshan Chakra , Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced on Friday as India celebrated 78 years of Independence.
The comprehensive security initiative is set to implement multiple layers of protection, combining modern surveillance, cybersecurity measures and physical safeguards, specifically designed for India's current security challenges.
Whilst Mission Sudarshan Chakra's precise details remain confidential, it is understood to involve joint efforts between India's leading research organisations, defence bodies and private sector innovators.
The initiative supports the government's vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat , particularly in defence and essential infrastructure sectors.
The Prime Minister's focus on domestically developed technology indicates a shift towards reducing foreign system dependence, strengthening national security autonomy.
