Developed under a public-private partnership with the DRDO and L&T, the Army's ambitious light tank project, titled 'Zorawar', was envisioned in 2021. Under it, the Centre seeks to procure 350 light tanks in a phased manner.

A patient with critical head injuries was on Monday airlifted in an Indian Air Force aircraft to Leh from a village in the Zanskar region of south Ladakh after continuous snowfall cut off ground access, it said.
