Following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's initiative to make India Aatmanirbhar, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday announced that the Ministry of Defence has prepared a list of 101 items for which there would be an embargo on the import beyond the timeline indicated against them. He said that the decision will offer a great opportunity to the Indian defence industry to manufacture the items in the negative list by using their own design and development capabilities or adopting the technologies designed & developed by DRDO to meet the requirements of the Armed Forces.

In a series of tweets, the Defence Minister said that MoD has bifurcated the capital procurement budget for 2020-21 between domestic and foreign capital procurement routes and a separate budget head has been created with an outlay of nearly Rs 52,000 crore for domestic capital procurement in the current financial year.
