After 75 years, we've heard the sound of Made-in-India weapon in I-Day gun salute: PM Modi

During his Independence Day speech, PM Narendra Modi said, "After 75 years, we've heard the sound of a Made-in-India weapon in the Independence Day gun salute. I salute the Armed Forces for this feat." For the first time, a home-grown howitzer gun, Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS), was used for the 21-gun salute during the ceremony at Red Fort.
