The Indian Army has entered into an agreement with the IIT-Gandhinagar (IITGN) to set up a research and development (R&D) cell on the campus.
Staffed by the faculty and research students, the R&D cell will attempt to solve the technical challenges faced by the army.
The agreement will also enable IITGN and Indian Army to collaborate in various other areas, including better understanding of critical technology requirements of the army, sharing of professional and technical knowledge, and other activities of mutual interest.
