Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised DRDO scientists for the successful first flight test of the Agni-5 missile, named Mission Divyastra. Featuring Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicle (MIRV) technology, the missile enhances India's nuclear deterrence with a range of 5,500 to 5,800 kilometers. This development is crucial for bolstering defense against potential threats from the east.
