India Moving Towards Theatre Commands, Says Modi As He Commissions 3 Naval Combatants

ABP News  

Indian Navy-Theatre Commands: For the first time in India’s naval history, three frontline naval combatants — INS Nilgiri, INS Surat and INS Vaghsheer — were commissioned into the Indian Navy at once on Wednesday, as India asserts its role as a crucial security partner under the Indo-Pacific strategic framework. India is now progressing towards the implementation of theatre commands to make the armed forces more efficient,” Modi said while commissioning the three platforms at Mumbai’s Naval Dockyard Wednesday. The three platforms commissioned on Wednesday are expected to boost the Navy’s strength in the seas, especially in the highly contested Indian Ocean Region. We can say that the importance that the Atlantic Ocean used to have in the past has shifted to the Indian Ocean today.” Chief of Navy Staff Admiral Dinesh K. Tripathi said these three platforms will make the Indian Navy’s capabilities “more robust and effective in safeguarding India’s maritime interests”.
