These young students were selected through a competition organised by a south India-based media house. These youngsters belong to various parts of the country and the meeting lasted for around half an hour, Defence Ministry officials said here today.
The meeting took place at Antony's office in the South Block here.
The minister also presented the group a replica of Tejas Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) and signed autographs for them.
The competition to select these children included essay writing and various other tests on their thoughts and understanding over India and its tradition and culture, they said.
