PM Narendra Modi says it is for the first time that the tri-commissioning of a destroyer, frigate and submarine done
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi commissioned three frontline naval warships - INS Surat, INS Nilgiri and INS Vaghsheer - at the Naval Dockyard in Mumbai on Tuesday.
Remarking that it was a big day for India's maritime heritage, the glorious history of the Navy and the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan (self-reliant India campaign), the Prime Minister said, "It is for the first time that the tri-commissioning of a destroyer, frigate and submarine was being done simultaneously."
He emphasized that it was also a matter of pride that all the three frontline platforms were made in India. "Today's programme links our glorious heritage with our future aspirations," Modi said.
