A big step has come forward to take India's defense power to new heights. DRDO (Defense Research and Development Organization) has developed an advanced defense system that can destroy enemy nuclear missiles in the air itself. This indigenous ballistic missile defense (BMD) system has been developed with India's own technology and it is capable of destroying the enemy's missile before it falls on the ground whether it is inside the atmosphere or outside. This means that if the nuclear missile is stopped at the beginning of the flight, then the risk of radiation or explosion is eliminated.
