The division traces its origins back to the Naval History Cell (NHC), which was established in 1968 with the primary objective of documenting the wartime and operational history of the Indian Navy.

Over the years, the NHC played a pivotal role in meticulously recording and cataloging significant events, operations, and achievements of the Indian Navy.

In a notable transformation, the Naval History Cell was re-designated as the Naval History Division in 2006, reflecting its expanded scope and enhanced responsibilities.

The elevation of the NHC to the status of a division underscored the growing recognition of the importance of naval history and the need to institutionalize efforts to preserve and promote it.

The Naval History Division serves as the custodian of the Indian Navyโ€™s rich maritime heritage, housing a treasure trove of archival documents, photographs, artifacts, and memorabilia that offer insights into the Navyโ€™s glorious past.

It serves as a repository of knowledge and a hub for scholarly research, providing historians, scholars, and naval enthusiasts with valuable resources to study and analyze various aspects of naval history.

The inauguration of the Naval History Division represents a significant step forward in the Indian Navyโ€™s efforts to promote a deeper understanding and appreciation of its historical legacy among its personnel and the wider public.

By commemorating the sacrifices, achievements, and contributions of past generations of naval personnel, the NHD seeks to inspire future generations of sailors and officers to uphold the highest traditions of the service.

In his address at the inauguration ceremony, Admiral R Hari Kumar underscored the importance of preserving naval history as a means of fostering esprit de corps, instilling pride in naval personnel, and fostering a sense of continuity and identity within the Indian Navy.

He highlighted the pivotal role of the NHD in promoting awareness of the Navyโ€™s heritage and inculcating a sense of belonging and camaraderie among its members.
