Why use missiles worth Rs 15 lakh each to intercept Pak drones costing much less? Congress leader

NAGPUR: (May 21) Maharashtra Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar on Wednesday questioned the rationale behind what he called using missiles costing Rs 15 lakh each to intercept Pakistan-fired Chinese drones costing Rs 15,000 a piece during ‘Operation Sindoor’.

Talking to reporters in Nagpur, the former state minister sought to know if it was wrong to ask the government about losses suffered in a conflict.
