INS Arihant enhances India’s security needs

India’s first indigenous nuclear submarine INS Arihant returned from its first deterrence patrol, successfully completing the establishment of the country’s survivable nuclear triad.

The crew of the Strategic Strike Nuclear Submarine were felicitated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who lauded the accomplishment calling it “historic” and gives a fitting response to those who indulge in nuclear blackmail.

Prime Minister expressed the hope that just as light dispels darkness and all fear, INS Arihant will be harbinger of fearlessness for the country.

PM stressed that a strong India will fulfill the hopes and aspirations of over a billion Indians and will also be an important pillar for global peace and stability, especially in a world full of uncertainties and concerns.
