· India · NDTV, Times of India, The Hindu
The Indian Navy will commission the warship Samarthak, its first multi-purpose vessel built under the Make in India initiative. The ship is designed as a utility platform to support naval operations. Commissioning marks a milestone in India's defence self-reliance efforts. Samarthak will form an important component of the Navy's future fleet. The vessel reflects India's growing indigenous warship-building capabilities.
Why it matters
The commissioning strengthens India's naval capabilities and reduces reliance on foreign defence imports. It supports the strategic goal of self-reliance in defence manufacturing under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative.
