Defence Research Laboratory (DRL), Tezpur had its humble beginning as "Field Laboratory", a small research cell of the then DRL(M), Kanpur on 21 November, just after the irksome Chinese aggression in October 1962. The initial charter of the laboratory was to provide storage/outdoor exposure trials for developed products under the prevailing hot and humid climate of North-eastern India. On subsequent development, the laboratory gained momentum with independent research & development assignments for the benefit of troops deployed in this strategically important region. In October 1980, it became a full-fledged R&D laboratory and was renamed as Defence Research Laboratory. |
