DEFENCE - February 2024

Feb 2024

Feb 02, 2024

Indian Navy Inducts Survey Vessel INS Sandhayak

  • The Indian Navy commissioned its latest survey vessel INS Sandhayak and the ship is expected to boost the force's surveillance apparatus in the strategic waterways. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Navy Chief Admiral R. Hari Kumar and Vice Admiral Rajesh Pendharkar, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Eastern Naval Command were among the distinguished guests who graced the occasion.
  • Built by the GRSE in Kolkata, the 110-meter-long INS Sandhayak displaces about 3,800 tonnes and boasts an impressive 80 percent indigenous content.
  • The new INS Sandhayak is not the first vessel to bear this name; it follows in the wake of its predecessor, which was decommissioned on June 4, 2021. However, this reincarnation brings with it enhanced features and capabilities, making it a formidable asset for the Indian Navy.

India's Rs. 6.21 Lakh crore Defence Budget

  • In a landmark move ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman disclosed the allocation of a staggering Rs. 6.21 lakh crore for India's Ministry of Defence during the Interim Budget presentation in Parliament. This marked a 4.3% increase from the previous year, constituting a substantial portion of the Union Budget at 13.04%.
  • A pivotal aspect of this year's defence budget is the introduction of a groundbreaking scheme by Finance Minister Sitharaman. This initiative aims to fortify DeepTech technologies for defence purposes, aligning with the pursuit of 'atmanirbharta' (self-sufficiency) within India's defence forces.
  • Breaking down the substantial allocation, Rs. 1.72 lakh crore is designated for military capital expenditure, Rs. 1.4 lakh crore for defence pensions, and Rs. 2.8 lakh crore for defence services. Capital expenditure spans salaries, pensions, modernisation, production establishments, maintenance, and research and development.

  • Indian Navy's indigenously designed and built survey ship, INS Nirupak, was decommissioned after 38 years of illustrious service to the nation in a ceremony, presided by Vice Admiral Adhir Arora, Chief Hydrographer to the Govt of India at Naval Dockyard, Visakhapatna. The ship was launched on June 4, 1981 at GRSE and commissioned into service on August 14, 1985 by Vice Admiral Jayant Ganpat Nadkarni, then Chief of Naval Staff. The ship was based at Visakhapatnam under the administrative and operational control of FOCINC, ENC. In recognition to its relentless dedication in the field of hydrography, INS Nirupak was awarded Admiral Jal Cursetji Rolling Trophy for best Survey Ship in the year 1994, 1995, 2005 and 2009.

India, Oman Ink Pact for Collaboration in Defence Sector

  • India and Oman signed an agreement that would provide a framework for collaboration in new areas of defence engagement including procurement of military equipment. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was firmed up at a meeting of India-Oman joint military cooperation committee (JMCC) in Muscat.
  • The two sides also carried out a comprehensive review of their defence cooperation and explored ways to boost it in line with their shared strategic interests.
  • The MoU was signed over a month after India and Oman unveiled a joint vision document titled 'A Partnership for the Future'.
