Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav made a visit to Bharat Earth Movers Limited (BEML) on Wednesday in Bengaluru. During the visit Mohan Yadav said, Indigenous technology is the way forward for India.

While talking to journalists CM Yadav said "We often look towards foreign countries, but efforts like these within India are what truly drive the nation forward. I have been told that BEML also plays a major role in the manufacturing of BrahMos and other types of missiles,"
Yadav noted that this was his second visit to Bengaluru after assuming office as chief minister.
Shantanu Roy, Chairman and Managing Director of BEML, received the land allotment letter from the Madhya Pradesh CM for the establishment of a rolling stock manufacturing unit in the Umeria of Raisen district of the state.

Equipped for Unattended Train Operation (UTO), the coach includes state-of-the-art safety systems and smart features designed to meet global standards.
BEML's metro journey began with the Railway Supply Institute (RSI) project for the Delhi Metro in the early 2000s.
