Owing to the Make In India drive, the nation is getting the firsts and bests of so many things.
Last month Ministry of Railways revealed that India will soon get self-propelled trains sets, produced at two-thirds of the cost of the same trains manufactured in the international market. Another #MakeInIndia product, a car, covered a whopping 19,000 km trip across 13 countries.
However, the latest addition to the list has taken us to new heights.
Today, Delhi got its first Heliport which was built by state-owned chopper operator Pawan Hans. It’s located at Rohini locality in north-west Delhi.
The heliport is constructed over an area of 25 acres and has come up with an investment of 100 crores.
