MoD review of def acquisition procedure 2020

- MAYANK SINGH @New Delhi

The Indian Army has begun raising the third Regiment of the indigenously manufactured Dhanush artillery guns.

As this newspaper reported in October 2024, going by the tardy delivery of the indigenously produced advanced Bofors gun, Dhanush, for the Indian Army, it will be difficult to meet the March 2026 dateline.

The first gun was inducted in April 2019, and till now, only two regiments have become operational. "Going by the speed of delivery, it is unlikely that all the guns might be delivered in the remaining time," sources at the top said.

Sources in the defence establishment said, "We have completed the process of raising a second regiment of Dhanush gun systems and also receiving a few systems for the third unit." The overall project involves inducting 114 guns in six regiments. Some delays are expected before all the guns are inducted.
