New Delhi (NVI): Five DRDO Young Scientists Laboratories will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi tomorrow with an aim of giving boost to indigenous research capabilities in the defence sector.
The Prime Minister will unveil a plaque to mark the occasion and address the scientists at the event being organised at the Aeronautical Development Establishment, DRDO in Bengaluru.
DRDO will also showcase some of its innovative products to the Prime Minister at an Exhibition on the occasion.
In 2014, Modi had suggested that at least five DRDO labs should be identified exclusively for innovation from young scientists up to the age of 35 years.
He had also called for involving youth in defence research related activities in a big way, to ensure that India remained abreast of global technological advancements in the field.
