What's behind this
India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) flight‑tested its indigenously developed quasi‑ballistic missile Pralay on Thursday from Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Island off the Odisha coast at about 11.10 am. The short‑range surface‑to‑surface missile is reported to have a range of 500 km and can carry a conventional warhead weighing between 500 and 1,000 kg. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said the flight test was part of user‑evaluation trials and met all stipulated objectives, clearing the way for imminent induction into the armed forces. The test came shortly after Pakistan announced a flight test of its own Fa’az missile.
