There is an urgent need to take stock of make in India. Make in India is one of the most critical initiatives undertaken by the Modi govt. it is vital that it be implimented at top speed not just to attain strategic autarky but also to CREATE vitally neededJOBS. to see where this project is and what are the impedences it is encountering from the entrenched bureaucracy of the Public sector- IMR team visited Bharat Forge at Pune.it was a privilege to meet and have frank discussions with BABA Kalyani- The visionary who has single handedly pursued a vision to make a 155 gun in India. the great news is that between him and DRDO we have finally produced a WORLD Beater gun that can fire out to 48 kms range , has a 6 round Burst fire capability and electric propulsion. India has indigenously produced the worlds best 155 gun. We now rapidly need to get this gun in service before the Chinese get to Doklam again!!we need to produce 200 - 300 such guns per year to fill the gaps created over last 30 years by the Bofors scandal. This is the one project that Nirmala Sitaraman must push with the GREATEST vigour to ACTUALISE the make in India concept and take it from pure THEORY to Reality.
