- PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

PRIME MINISTER NARENDRA MODI on Friday announced a 10-year project to develop an indigenous defence shield to protect India's vital military and civilian installations and deliver a decisive response in case of any enemy threat, a move that came amid concerns over twin security challenges from Pakistan and China.

In his Independence-Day address from the ramparts of the Red Fort, the prime minister also hinted at New Delhi's resolve to reduce dependence on foreign technologies for military platforms as he called for developing jet engines within the country for India's fighter aircraft.

Though the prime minister did not elaborate on the defence system named "Sudarshan Chakra", experts said it could be on the lines of Israel's Iron Dome all-weather air-defence system to deal with stand-off weapons and other aerial threats.
