According to the Defence Ministry, the demonstration brought alive the navy’s combat readiness, technological strength, and growing self-reliance, showcasing coordinated manoeuvres by frontline assets across the maritime spectrum
Navy Day commemorates the Indian Navy’s decisive role in ‘Operation Trident’ during the 1971 war.
The Navy said that over the decades it has evolved to meet emerging maritime challenges and, under the vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat, has transitioned “from a Buyer’s Navy to a Builder’s Navy”
This year’s operational demonstration highlighted the Navy’s commitment to maritime security and its role as a dependable force promoting stability and cooperation in the region
