Kerala Government Approves Additional Land for DRDO's BrahMos Project
The Kerala government approved the allotment of an additional 90 acres of land to the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) for the BrahMos missile project in Thiruvananthapuram. Initially, 90 acres were allotted, but the project requires 180 acres in total. This additional land will help secure necessary approvals. The Cabinet also decided to increase the authorised share capital of Kerala State Electronics Development Corporation Limited (KELTRON) from Rs 35 crore to Rs 60 crore. The previous government had allocated 180 acres free of cost for the project.
