On Friday, PM Narendra Modi will dedicate and begin several projects worth Rs 6,300 crore in the Bundelkhand area of Uttar Pradesh.

Additionally, he would give the indigenously designed and built equipment to the armed forces.

The light combat helicopter made by HAL will be given to the IAF chief. He will hand over the drones made by Indian start-ups to the army and electronic warfare suits to the navy.

The Uttar Pradesh Defence Industrial Corridor has nodes at Aligarh, Agra, Chitrakoot, Lucknow, Jhansi and Kanpur.

PM Modi will additionally launch the National Cadet Corps Alumni Association of which he would be the first member. He will begin 100 new co-educational Sainik Schools. These will be made with the help of the private sector over the coming two years.

Developed at a cost of Rs 2,600 crore in Mahoba, the Arjun Sahayak project is the largest project that the PM dedicated to the people. This project on the Dhasan river would render irrigation facilities to 1.5 lakh farmers in 168 villages of Hamirpur, Banda and Mahoba.
