Bengaluru: Prime minister Narendra Modi on Monday will dedicate Asia’s largest helicopter production facility to the nation. It was in 2016 that prime minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone for the vanity project.

The facility of aerospace giants Hindustan aeronautics limited is located in Karnataka and will soon suffice the country’s chopper needs.

The defence ministry billed the 615-acre factory as India’s largest helicopter-manufacturing facility, and it has been planned as a one-stop solution for the country’s chopper requirements.
