Bhubaneswar: India today afternoon successfully tested its nuclear capable surface-to-surface Agni I missile from a test range in Orissa, an official said.

The missile, which can strike a target 700 km away, was tested as part of user-trial from a facility on Wheeler Island in the district of Bhadrak by the Indian armed forces, director of the test range S.P. Dash told the media.

"It was a fantastic launch," he said.

The armed forces had successfully tested two nuclear-capable missiles, Dhanush and Prithvi II, Saturday in Orissa. (IANS)
