    Question

    In 2024, the Government of India announced updates to the Defence Acquisition Procedure (DAP), aiming to boost self-reliance in defence manufacturing. Which of the following is NOT an intended objective of the updated DAP 2024?​

    A.

    Streamlining procurement timelines and reducing bureaucratic hurdles

    B.

    Eliminating all private sector participation in defence manufacturing

    C.

    Promoting higher indigenisation requirements for defence contracts

    D.

    Increasing collaboration between Indian defence firms and global OEMs

    Correct option is A

    Sol.

    Correct Ans is (A) Streamlining procurement timelines and reducing bureaucratic hurdles

    Explanation:

    The Defence Acquisition Procedure (DAP) 2024 aims to improve the efficiency of the defence procurement process by streamlining procurement timelines and reducing bureaucratic hurdles. This objective ensures that the procurement of defence equipment is faster, more transparent, and less hindered by administrative delays.

    Information Booster:

    • Streamlining procurement: The update to DAP 2024 focuses on making the process quicker and more efficient to meet the operational needs of the armed forces.
    • Reducing bureaucratic hurdles: The review intends to eliminate unnecessary delays and improve the ease of doing business in the defence sector, supporting both public and private sector participation.

    Additional Information:

    • (B) Eliminating all private sector participation in defence manufacturing: This is incorrect because the private sector is actively encouraged to participate in the manufacturing of defence equipment to boost self-reliance under initiatives like Aatmanirbharta and Make in India.
    • (C) Promoting higher indigenisation requirements for defence contracts: While indigenisation is a key part of DAP 2024, the primary focus here is on improving procurement timelines.
    • (D) Increasing collaboration between Indian defence firms and global OEMs: This is encouraged, but it is not the main focus of streamlining the procurement process.
