Jailed BrahMos scientist delivered 80 missiles to forces
Wednesday, 12 June 2024 Former BrahMos scientist Nishant Agrawal, who was sentenced to life by a sessions court here on June 3 for leaking military secrets to Pakistan, worked in the missile assembly unit at Nagpur and was involved in delivery of close to 80 missiles to the armed forces during his four-year stint. He had access to customers and delivery locations of missiles, as per Major General (retd) Achyut Deo, general manager, BrahMos Aerospace Private Limited (BAPL), who deposed as a witness during Nishant's trial.
In a significant step towards enhancing defense relations, Russia and India have agreed to further strengthen their military cooperation, including participation in joint exercises and strategic knowledge-sharing. This agreement, made during a meeting of the India-Russia Inter-Governmental Commission on Military and Military-Technical Cooperation (IRIGC-M&MTC) in Moscow, is aimed at improving operational coordination between the two forces. The announcement comes just days ahead of Indian Minister of Defense Rajnath Singh's visit to Moscow, where he will hold high-level talks and commission a stealth frigate for the Indian Navy. This move further solidifies the longstanding defense partnership between India and Russia, which includes joint development of advanced military systems like the BrahMos cruise missile, the S-400 air-defense system, and more.
