Operation Brahma showcases India’s rapid response, blending high-tech rescue with humanitarian support after deadly earthquake that killed over 3600 people.
In the heart of a shattered Myanmar, help arrived on mechanical legs and tiny wings. The Indian Army’s deployment of robot mules and nano drones is making global headlines as the nation spearheads a high-tech rescue mission in the aftermath of a devastating 7.7-magnitude earthquake that claimed over 3,600 lives.
Two weeks after the quake reduced buildings to rubble and left thousands injured and homeless, India’s advanced Search and Rescue (SAR) operation, named Operation Brahma, is providing critical support on the ground.
A striking video released by the Indian Army shows a robotic mule navigating treacherous debris, a symbol of India’s technological prowess and unwavering regional commitment.
India was among the first nations to respond. Within 24 hours of the disaster, Prime Minister Narendra Modi personally contacted Myanmar’s military leader, Min Aung Hlaing, to express condolences and pledge aid. What followed was a swift mobilization of men, machines, and medicine.
From Agra, a 118-member medical contingent — including orthopaedic specialists — was flown in to operate a field hospital and help amputees with prosthetic limbs. Reinforcing this effort, an 80-member team from the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) arrived equipped with concrete cutters, power drills, hammers, and life-saving gear.
“This is part of our policy to be the first responder,” the Ministry of External Affairs stated, underscoring India’s proactive approach to humanitarian crises in the region.
The Indian Navy added maritime muscle to the mission. Warships INS Satpura and INS Savitri docked at Yangon, delivering 40 tonnes of essential supplies. Two more ships followed, bringing food, medicine, tents, and other critical materials.
India’s Ambassador to Myanmar, Abhay Thakur, formally handed over the first tranche of aid to Yangon’s Chief Minister, U Soe Thein, cementing a moment of international solidarity.
As drones scan the skies and robotic mules traverse ruinous terrain, India’s fusion of compassion and innovation is lighting a path of hope in Myanmar’s darkest hour.
