Sitharaman calls on start ups to find solutions on cyber, space warfare

Union Defense Minister Nirmala Sitharaman launched iDEX Defence India Startup Challenge at HAL Convention Center, Bengaluru on Saturday. Speaking at the event, Union Minister said, “Today unmanned drones with missiles on them are the envy of many countries and I already get the feeling that, those are not beyond us to produce.” She further added, “Cyber and space warfare need solutions too. If your space and cyber frontiers are left defenseless, everything you do with manpower is meaningless.”
