Major Rajprasad RS of the Indian Army’s 7 Engineer Regiment has been awarded the prestigious NSG Counter-IED Innovator Award in recognition of his groundbreaking contributions to improvised explosive device (IED) neutralization technologies. The award was presented by the Union Home Secretary during the National Security Guard’s International Seminar held in New Delhi on June 11, 2025.

Major Rajprasad’s innovations have significantly enhanced the Indian Army’s operational capabilities in high-risk environments. Among his most notable inventions are Agniastra, a Multi-Target Portable Remote Detonation System, and Shatrunash, a Handheld Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Gun. Agniastra enables the safe detonation of multiple IEDs from a distance, while Shatrunash disables electronic triggering mechanisms of IEDs, ensuring greater safety for frontline troops during counter-terror operations.

These developments are a major step forward in India’s push for technological self-reliance under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. Major Rajprasad’s portfolio of indigenous solutions includes the Xploder, a kamikaze Unmanned Ground Vehicle capable of reconnaissance and payload delivery for offensive operations, and the Mobile Reactive Munition System (MRMS), a stealthy anti-tank mine system deployable via aerial platforms. Both were showcased at Aero India 2025 and attracted wide acclaim for their innovation and practicality.

In just six months, three of his innovations—Agniastra, Xploder, and Vidyut Rakshak, an IoT-enabled generator monitoring system—have been cleared for induction into the Indian Army, marking one of the fastest transitions from concept to deployment in recent defense history. His earlier creation, the Wireless Electronic Detonation System (WEDC), has also been inducted, offering a long-range, microprocessor-based, precision demolition tool.

The award ceremony was attended by top defense, paramilitary, and intelligence officials, reflecting the high regard for Major Rajprasad’s work and its potential to shape India’s counter-IED and internal security landscape. His achievements not only strengthen operational effectiveness but also serve as a beacon of innovation within India’s growing indigenous defense ecosystem.Tools
