Rajnath Singh wants to create a win-win situation for all
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh says India offers a partnership that comes with a variety of options accommodative of national priorities and capacities.
“We want to build with you, we want to launch with you and we want to create with you. There is an old African proverb ‘If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together’. We intend to go far and we want to do it together,” said the Minister.
“We wish to create symbiotic relationships, where we can learn from each other, grow together and create a win-win situation for all,” he said after chairing the Ambassadors’ Roundtable conference for the forthcoming Aero India 2023 in New Delhi on 9 Jan 2023. It was attended by Ambassadors, High Commissioners, Chargé d’affaires and Defence Attachés of over 80 countries.
He has invited the representatives from across the world to attend Asia’s largest and 14th Aero show – Aero India-2023 – which will be held in Bengaluru between 13-17 Feb 2023.
He urged the diplomats to encourage their respective defence and aerospace companies to attend the global event.
“Besides the major entrepreneurs and investors in the defence and aerospace industries, the event will witness participation of prominent defence think-tanks and defence-related bodies from across the world. Aero India will, indeed, provide a unique opportunity for exchange of information, ideas and new technological developments in the aviation industry,” he said.
In his welcome remarks, Defence Secretary Giridhar Aramane said Aero India 2023 will provide an opportunity for exhibitors and participants to exchange ideas and forge collaborations to fulfil their quest to achieve excellence in aerospace and defence manufacturing.
As on date, over 645 exhibitors have registered for the event, with 80 countries confirming their participation. The marquee events include Defence Ministers’ Conclave ‘SPEED’ and a CEOs Roundtable. fiinews.com
