In the pipeline for more than a couple of years, India is now close to acquiring 30 Predator drones from the United States. A high-level meeting will be held on Monday in the Defence Ministry to discuss the acquisition worth around Rs 21,000 crore.
Top Defence Ministry sources told India Today that the Defence Secretary would chair the meeting to be attended by senior officials.
If the acquisition is cleared in this meeting, it will be forwarded to the Defence Acquisition Council headed by the Defence minister. Then it will be sent to the Cabinet Committee on Security to give its final nod before the contract is signed.
