50,000 employment opportunities from the construction of ‘Tejas’ aircraft: Rajnath Singh

Bangalore: Union Defense Minister Rajnath Singh is on a visit to Karnataka today. He addressed on the occasion of Ex-Servicemen’s Day. The bravery and prowess shown by the soldiers of our army is unprecedented. We will not allow any threat to come to India. There is a saying in English. ‘Once a soldier, Always a Soldier’. “Ex-Servicemen’s Day commemorates the sacrifices made by you and your family in the service of the country,” said Rajnath Singh. Now the government has ordered HAL to produce 83 Tejas fighter jets to boost the country’s defense sector. This decision will create about 50,000 new jobs in the country, said Rajnath Singh.

In the conflict between India and China last year in the Galvan Valley in Ladakh, our troops displayed unparalleled bravery and restraint. “Every Indian is proud of the action taken by Indian troops against China,” said Rajnath Singh.

‘Ability to attack bigger than Balakot’

The Tejas fighter jet is better and more technologically advanced than the JF-17 jointly built by China and Pakistan, said Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadoria. ‘Tejas has the ability to attack with more force than the air attack on Balakot. Tejas is capable of matching any weapon, ‘said Bhadoria.

Now there will be 6 squadrons

With the arrival of Tejas, a light fighter aircraft, the 4th Squadron of the Air Force will be increased. At present there are 2 squadrons and after the addition of 83 new Tejas, their number will go up to 6 squadrons. The deployment of these aircraft will be at the forefront, he said.

The whole system will change in the next 8 to 9 years

There are 83 planes too. When such an order is placed, the entire system will be replaced in the next 8 to 9 years. This is a big step for military air transport. It is also a big step in the production of fighter jets. This will also strengthen the domestic defense manufacturing industry, said Air Chief Bhadoria.
