In such times, the countries that possess strong strategic capabilities and advanced technology will lead in the future. He noted that as India moves swiftly in this direction, <strong>Solar Group<\/strong> is playing an important role in giving new momentum to the country\u2019s strategic strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was speaking at the foundation-laying ceremony of the <strong>Robotics and UAV Facility project<\/strong> being set up by <strong>Solar Defence and Aerospace<\/strong> in the Special Economic Zone of MIHAN in Nagpur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways <strong>Nitin Gadkari<\/strong>, Minister of State for Finance and Planning <strong>Adv.

Today, the company has secured a place among India\u2019s leading defence production firms. Whether it is advanced drones or technologies such as the <strong>Pinaka rocket system<\/strong>, the group has contributed significantly to strengthening the country\u2019s strategic capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that in the changing global environment, technologies such as <strong>artificial intelligence<\/strong>, <strong>semiconductor ecosystems<\/strong>, and <strong>quantum technology<\/strong> will play a key role. In this context, the state government has formulated a new policy for defence technology, aerospace, and deep-tech sectors. The investment being made by Solar Group under this policy is one of the largest so far, he pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chief Minister assured that the state government would extend full support to Solar Industries as it continues its journey with the vision of <strong>\u201cNation First.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solar Industries\u2019 Contribution is a Matter of Pride: Nitin Gadkari<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Union Minister <strong>Nitin Gadkari<\/strong> said that major transformations are taking place globally in defence preparedness. India is strengthening its defence capabilities in this context, which is essential for maintaining global peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He noted that significant progress is being made in robotics engines and drone technology, and the ongoing global conflicts demonstrate their growing importance. The Solar project is aligned with the technologies of the future. Considering the strong capabilities of the private sector in technology development, the government is actively encouraging private participation in this field, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the programme, an audio-visual presentation explaining the Robotics and UAV Facility project was shown. <strong>Satyanarayan Nuwal<\/strong>, Chairman of Solar Defence and Aerospace, spoke about the group\u2019s journey so far and its future goals and strategies. <strong>Raghav Nuwal<\/strong> delivered the vote of thanks.
