IIT Kharagpur Opens Centre for Indigenous Defense Innovation

Imagine a new center at a big school in India called IIT Kharagpur, called Manekshaw Centre of Excellence.

Its goal is to help India create its own defense technology.

It brings together the school, the army, and companies to invent new things for defense.

They will work together on things like AI and new ways of fighting.

This new center also wants to make India self-reliant in defense, so it's less dependent on other countries.
