The DRDO has developed various missile for Indian Armed Forces and Agni Missile is one of the important in the changine world scenario.

This failure of Agni II Missile should not be viewed as complete failure of AGNI II Missile. India has the world class scientist working on the design and development of various missiles. Offcourse it is a small setback but our scientist will soon find out the cause of failure and rectify the fault and come up with more sophisticated and lethal version of AGNI II.

The exact cause of failure can be known after analysis by the DRDO scientist.
