"This is an extremely crucial and sensitive project for the Ministry of Defence and we are proud that the ministry has reposed its faith in our technical, engineering and solutioning capabilities to execute this project," said S N Subrahmanyan, Managing Director and CEO of Larsen & Toubro.

"It involves creating a centralised network monitoring, management and control system for all the seven layers under NFS which interconnects 414 defence stations," he added while describing the scope of the mandate.
