India's premier defence research body, Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), is preparing for some drastic changes. In January a nine-member committee formed by the PMO gave a report on structural and functional changes DRDO needs to undertake.
The idea was to make the organisation leaner, meaner and in sync with the modern-day requirements of the military. Defence scientists were opposed to some of the measures suggested by the committee led by K VijayRaghavan, former principal scientific advisor to the central government.
But the PMO insisted that changes need to take place, after which DRDO formed an internal overseeing panel led by chairman Dr Samir Kamat. It also has two senior directors general as members. In this episode of 'Simply Nitin', StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief has more.

Great video, as usual great depth of knowledge was shared by Nitin Sir. Just one request if possible can you make a video on helping startups/msmes understand how to break in to the system at DRDO? Information around certifications, capability demonstration, training etc will help. I am sure there will be a lot of entrepreneurs that would love to be a part of the ecosystem.

DRDO should be Research Development and Design only. Indian firms like Kalyani, Bharat Forge, Tata, L&T etc... should be given mass orders by the Army, Air Force and Navy Time to build a serious military industrial complex.

Great initiative on the part of DRDO. It high time that the Trainee scientific officers be given training in cutting edge technology by collaborating with top-notch institutes. It's also required to keep a tab on their progress there. It is also recommended that the institues should have a department for defence projects from where they can work remotely on live projects. This idea is taken from the way the ISS astronauts work remotely. The objective is to minimise the project execution time and to expedite the results. Hope the suggessions will be of some use. Thanks and regards. Jai Hind 🙏 🇮🇳

Initial hesitancy from DRDO is understandable considering it's pioneering work while the Govts were not visionary or honest in their plan of action in making Bharat great again. Now the winds of change must be welcomed by it to keep its good work and resources reflected in many ways to make "Atmanirbhar Bharat" a reality.

If not the public, as a democracy (doubtful now), such reports should be made available to a parliamentary committee which involves MPs from different political parties. Otherwise, we'll see the rot being hidden until the BJP stays in power. And when they get voted out, the country's security will be in shambles.

Is there any information on increasing research budgets and implementation of outcome based rather than requirements based development? If we are relying on GSQRs then development will always be -1 generation. DRDO needs to lead QSR not the other way round .

@soumabratabiswas6652 22 күн бұрын

Rather than improving, it will lead to more licensed production. With an abysmal investment in R&D of 0.6% GDP there is no capability of research outside of a handful of institutions like DRDO, ISRO, some CSIR labs etc. in India.

It's good that DRDO is revamping to cope up with upcoming defence industry needs but shouldn't financial powers of DRDO be needed to pump up.. we know how much time MoD or PMO taken for approval of AMCA program that too when it was like big program watching by big industries.. i wonder what would happen with other small but incremental programs.. R&D is vey tough business but spending on that i really less from GoI shouldn't DRDO budget be increase so they get cushion of money to procure system instead of going steady progress timeline to not screw 'systems'

The urgency and need for major surgery in our defence development and production has still not sunk in as it seems that the babus have convinced the polilticians that the answer is new committees manned by the same people. A resentful and angry DRDO and Ministry of Defence who tried to scuttle the changes being given the responsibility to restructure themselves is strange at best and foolhardy at worst, betraying a half-heartedness on the part of the PMO. Finally, what is this obsession with medium and small industries as opposed to the biggest and most capable industrial companies in India? Is is because these MSMEs are easier to control by the Defence Ministry/DRDO? Unless this changes, nothing will come of this shuffling of the same old pieces around the table.

Importan Read :US desperate for a Military Base in Bangladesh. Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina disclosed this when she told leaders of the 14-party alliance that a plot is on to carve out “a Christian state like East Timor,” taking parts from Bangladesh and Myanmar. She refrained from mentioning the name of India. She also said a white man offered her a hassle-free reelection in the 7 January polls provided she allowed a foreign country to establish an air base in Bangladesh territory. Here again, the Bangladesh Prime Minister did not name the nationality of that “white man.”
