Well supportedReported by 13 independent outlets

The Indian Navy is expanding its fleet through indigenous construction and strategic acquisitions. The Navy has initial government approval to procure 78 ships and submarines and 120 fast interceptor craft, valued at approximately Rs 2.41 trillion, in addition to 42 vessels already on order. Shipyards like Goa Shipyard Ltd launched INS Srishti, part of the next-generation offshore patrol vessel series, while INS Vikrant, India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier, was highlighted as a symbol of national shipbuilding achievement.
