Mission Shakti  

Bill Gates recently visited slums in Odisha and met CM Naveen Patnaik. He talked with the locals and was happy to see the development and transformation of the area into a model city. He is there to attend several programmes like Mukta, Jaga Mission, and Mission Shakti. 

The Uttar Pradesh government, under the Mission Shakti campaign, will hold special counselling camps for girl students who aspire to make their career in civil services, army, police, air force, medical, engineering and other fields

 746 Kasturba Gandhi Vidyalayas (KGV) of the state, who come from the weaker sections of the society, will now study in smart classes

The Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh is giving great stress on value system
 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also said that former president Dr APJ Abdul Kalam would have been happy about the recent success of Mission Shakti, the A-SAT missile test guided by "Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas."

NASA had called India's ASAT test a 'terrible thing'. But the scientists at the DRDO clarified that the threat of debris is not that much. The entire debris will decay in 45 days.
 

Just days after Mission Shakti was launched to attack India’s own satellite, in a bid to expand the country’s defence, the Pentagon has now backed India in stating that the debris would not be harmful

From indigenous production under licence after procurement to the coming of age of the private sector in defence equipment manufacturing, from great utility for the Army, Navy and Air Force to importers showing keen interest in our weapon systems, the Make-in-India project for military hardware has arrived all guns blazing.

ISRO's PSLV-C45's launch came six days after India test-fired an anti-satellite (ASAT) missile in the Mission Shakti operation.

Out of the three institutions of science the activist-lawyer has named, HAL existed even before India gained independence. DRDO was a mere merger of three older institutions. ISRO came into being five years after India's first Prime Minister was no more.

 

 

While the model code of conduct prohibits government functionaries to address the nation in between the announcement of election dates and the dates of polling via radio or television, DD News had relayed the programme. The national broadcaster explained to the Election Commission that it was not its own telecast but news agency ANI's. ANI, in turn, got it from YouTube. Moreover, Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not make an announcement of any new policy decision, which is prohibited at the time when the model code is in vogue.

Modi said, "Maybe in 2024, there emerges a person who can challenge me, but there is no challenger in 2019, because the voters have made up their minds and they are not looking for an alternate candidate."
