Invest in defence, says Governor Narasimhan

Hyderabad: Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan on Sunday exhorted Indian companies to invest in defence manufacturing. He also asked the defence establishment to focus on steps to counter cyber attacks.

Mr Narasimhan said the defence industry in the country should be in a position to export equipment and not import as it is now. He said the country already has the talent and capability for indigenous production but needs investments. He said India’s defence research was of the highest quality. Mr Narasimhan was speaking at a conference organised by the Forum for Integrated National Security here.
