Raksha Mantri Flags Off ‘SANJAY’ Battlefield Surveillance System to Enhance Army’s Intelligence Capabilities
On January 24, 2025, Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh launched the ‘SANJAY - The Battlefield Surveillance System (BSS)’ in New Delhi. This advanced automated system integrates inputs from ground and aerial sensors, processing them to create a unified Common Surveillance Picture, ensuring battlefield transparency. Developed by the Indian Army and Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), SANJAY will assist in Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) tasks, preventing intrusions, and improving operational accuracy. With an investment of Rs 2,402 crore, the system will be inducted into the Indian Army's Brigades, Divisions, and Corps by October 2025, marking a leap towards self-reliance in defense technology. The initiative is part of the Indian Army’s 'Year of Technology Absorption' and the Ministry of Defence’s 'Year of Reforms.'
