Speaking at the inaugural event, the Prime Minister spoke about the transformational journey the Indian defence sector has been witnessing, and how India has made its place despite the monopoly of a few manufacturing companies in the global defence sector. However, in the same breath, he added that there’s a long way to go as expectations from India are now huge.
