India does not believe in world order where few would be considered supe

New Delhi: India does not believe in a world order based on the notion that some countries would be superior to others. India does not want to be a country under anyone’s domination, nor does it want to bring other countries under its control. India’s relations with other countries have been based on sovereignty, equality and mutual respect. India’s ‘Make in India’ initiative does not mean cutting off the world and producing locally. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh explained that India has been making proposals to other countries to produce in its country and has been appealing to implement joint production projects through this.

Asia’s largest aerospace exhibition, ‘Aero India’, will be organised in Bangalore from February 13 to 17. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh addressed the meeting of diplomatic authorities organised on occasion. During this, the Defence Minister presented India’s position regarding the ‘Make in India’ initiative in precise words. Partnerships and joint productions have become crucial for India’s defence sector. India’s defence exports have increased significantly, and India has exported this to more than 75 countries. Rajnath Singh informed that India’s defence exports had increased eight times in the last five years.

Moreover, India has been taking the initiative to make drones, cyber technology, artificial intelligence, radar systems, and other materials that will be very important in the future. Also, the Defence Minister explained that India, which exports arms and defence materials to its partner countries, will also assist in technology transfer, training and co-production. While speaking on India’s progress in the defence sector, the Defence Minister mentioned the success achieved in the production of fighter aircraft Tejas, Light Utility Helicopter (LUH) and Light Combat Helicopter (LCH). Besides, the Defence Minister also pointed out that while manufacturing all these things under ‘Make in India’, India has set forward the goal of making ‘Make for World’.

As the world undergoes massive geopolitical upheaval, food and energy security have been at stake. As this menace grew, sustainable measures for the welfare of the poor get neglected. In this background, the G20 conference was organised in India. The Defence Minister made it realise on this occasion that the importance of this conference has increased more due to geopolitical developments.
