India’s defence exports have increased from Rs 1,940 crore in 2014-15 to Rs 23,622 crore in 2024-25, reflecting a quantum leap in this key segment.
This was stated by BJP Rajya Sabha MP Harsh Mahajan while addressing mediapersons here today. He remarked, “PM Modi’s 11-year tenure is marked by a plethora of achievements which the Opposition can never match.”
He added, “The country has also floated its first indigenous aircraft carrier INS Vikrant.” Underlining India’s commitment to global peace, he said the country was a leading force in UN peacekeeping and had more than 2.9 lakh troops deployed worldwide.
Mahajan said, “Overall, 1.57 lakh startups were recognised in India, of these, 192 were in Himachal Pradesh.”
He flayed the Congress for failing to appreciate these efforts and alleged it is not able to tolerate the PM’s achievement-filled journey.
