Scientists at CSIR-NCL Pune, with support from the Water Technology Initiative of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India, have recently developed a novel hybrid technology to bring safe and healthy drinking water. What is the name of the hybrid technology?

The correct answer is SWASTIIK.

Key Points

•  The text focuses on the origin (Israel), developer (Israel Aerospace Industries - IAI), capabilities (surveillance, reconnaissance, long endurance), variants (Heron Mk, Heron Mk-2), and utilization by the Indian armed forces. There is no mention of any project names, codenames, or related entities that match the given options. Therefore, it is not possible to definitively choose a correct answer from the provided choices based solely on the information about Heron drones.
• It's possible that these options refer to something else entirely, perhaps related to Indian defense initiatives, technological projects, or other unrelated domains. Without additional context or information linking these specific names to the Heron drones or Indian defense procurement, any attempt to connect them would be speculative.
