Defence Minister opens up on missile issue



BY A STAFF REPORTER: Now Defence Minister Rajnath Singh talks about the missiles fired at Pakistan by mistake. He said that, I'd like to tell this House about an incident that occurred on 9th March 2022. It's related to an accidental missile release during the inspection. During routine maintenance and inspection of the missile unit, around 7 pm, one missile got accidentally released. It was later known that the missile fell in Pakistan's territory. The incident is regrettable. But it's a relief that no losses happened. I'd like to inform the House that Govt has taken this matter very seriously & official order for high-level probe has been given.
