Bhoomi Pujan for 10,000-Tons Aluminium Extrusion Press at YIL, Nagpur
Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh today performed the Bhoomi Pujan for the state-of-the-art 10,000-Tons Aluminium Extrusion Press, along with Maharashtra Chief Minister Shri Devendra Fadnavis at Ordnance Factory Ambajhari, Nagpur, a unit of Yantra India Ltd (YIL). Raksha Mantri asserted that the Extrusion Press symbolises a shift in the country's approach from relying on imports to producing critical goods domestically. He described taking control of security-related necessities as imperative in the present geopolitical scenario to remain future-ready.
The decision to set up Aluminium Extrusion Press will prove another major step towards #Aatmanirbharta in #DefenceProduction by reducing the dependence on critical aluminium extruded components. It will strengthen the nation’s capability to produce large, high-strength and precision aluminium alloy extrusions to cater to the requirements of defence & aerospace sectors.
Secretary (Defence Production) Shri Sanjeev Kumar and other senior officers of Department of Defence Production (DDP) & YIL were present on the occasion.
