The Moscow forum was hosted under the chairmanship of Sergei Shoigu, Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation. The gathering focused on challenges and threats to international security in an emerging multipolar world.
By the time Rama’s army reaches Lanka, the campaign has already achieved something extraordinary. The ocean has been crossed. The bridge has been built. The Vanara host has arrived at the doorstep of Ravana’s island fortress. But reaching Lanka is only the beginning. The real challenge lies ahead
The launch took place from Indira Gandhi Stadium in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh. The platform rose into the stratospheric zone, a region above normal aircraft operations and far below satellite orbits. This altitude band, roughly between 20 and 50 kilometres, is increasingly seen as a valuable “near-space” layer because it offers wide-area visibility, long dwell time and flexible deployment. Aircraft usually operate below 10 kilometres, while satellites operate far higher, leaving the stratosphere as a powerful but underused operating space.
The AMCA is more than another aircraft project. It is India’s attempt to enter the small league of nations capable of designing, testing and producing a stealth combat aircraft with advanced sensors, internal weapons carriage, network-centric operations and survivability against modern air defence systems. For the Indian Air Force, the aircraft is expected to become a major pillar of combat capability from the mid-2030s, when legacy fleets will be under pressure and regional air warfare will be shaped increasingly by stealth aircraft, long-range weapons, unmanned systems and electronic warfare.
In the Yuddha Kanda of the Ramayana, Vibhishana’s arrival in Rama’s camp is one of
One of the major war tactic in the Ramayana is long-range reconnaissance. Before Rama’s army
According to the reported plan, around 90 to 92 aircraft may be manufactured in India through a partnership involving Dassault Aviation and an Indian private-sector company, while the remaining aircraft would arrive in fly-away condition from France. The Indian Express reported that around 90 aircraft are expected to be made in India, while ThePrint earlier reported a 22 fly-away and 92 India-made split.
The new equipment is designed to improve access to modern cancer treatment for serving personnel, veterans and their dependents. Army Hospital R&R handles a significant patient load, and the induction of this technology is expected to expand in-house treatment capacity, reduce dependence on external facilities, and provide more advanced care within the military medical system itself.
The idea behind a biomimetic AUV is simple and powerful: the ocean already contains highly efficient underwater designs. Fish, tuna, rays, dolphins and whales move through water with efficiency, agility and reduced disturbance. Biomimetics translates such natural engineering into mechanical systems. IIT Madras describes biomimetic AUVs as platforms that mimic aquatic creatures for high propulsive efficiency, silent operation, fewer wake signatures and strong manoeuvrability.
The programme was organised around the larger national idea of Viksit Bharat, where young Indians are encouraged to see themselves as active participants in India’s development journey. Instead of treating defence outreach only as a recruitment exercise, Project Navbharat presents the Army as a disciplined institution of national service, technological capability and civic responsibility. This makes the initiative especially relevant in border and frontier regions, where the Army’s presence is deeply connected with security, public confidence and national integration.
