This publicity film was released by the Indian Navy as part of the Presidential Fleet Review 2011.
By the way, I’m off to Mumbai to anchor Headlines Today‘s coverage of the anti-corruption campaign by Anna Hazare. Will be in Mumbai for the next four days with my head buried in this thing, mostly. If I manage to surface occasionally, I’ll blog, but it’ll be rough. Have a good week!
Is Indian navy bothered about its depleting submarine fleet. In today's world submarines play a vital role in securing seas other than aircraft carriers. For example Royal navy currently have no aircraft carriers( due to decommissioning of harriers), but its naval superiority is depended on astute class submarines. With growing chinese influence in Indian ocean( as the chinese face difficulties in pacific region due to us, aus, japan), India immediately requires combat ready 21 submarines(atleast conventional with AIP) according to recent studies. Scorpenes will be available by only 2016-17, and by that time half of indian ocean region will come under chinese control.
How boring….this Anna is screwing everyone's New Year, I can see that!!!
Covering Annas campaign is as important as covering defense topics and more important
