Comment: While Mishra holds an important place in DRDO, references here do not significantly talk about him. We need multiple reliable references that talk about Mishra. References like newspapers, books, peer-reviewed magazines, news channel reports (audio/video) etc. Dial911 (talk) 03:51, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
