I’m proud of the Indian govt machinery that’s been making the US squirm so bad. Don’t get me wrong. Am not anti US. Several decades of working with Americans has shown that they’re transactional and will not change for anybody. This recognition has to be embedded in our psyche

Just another day in the office for the @sssdefence P72. By a mile the most accurate 7.62x39 weapon to have come out of Bharat. Those who observe closely will know why that happens. Some more evolution underway to make it among the top 5 in this caliber globally. We promised

A big win for Bharat. Super stoked that this win is a vindication of Indian designed and made small arms. Congrats to @BharatForgeLtd & ARDE. I hope this is the last time we simp for foreign imports or ToT. Let’s push for IDDM at all costs
