The Rising Star Corps, raised in 2005, plays a key role in guarding the western borders and enhancing operational preparedness in the northern sector.

His appointment comes as part of a series of top-level transitions in Indiaโ€™s military leadership. Vice Admiral Krishna Swaminathan, the current Vice Chief of the Naval Staff, has taken over as Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Western Naval Command. He will be succeeded by Vice Admiral Sanjay Vatsayan, who is expected to assume charge as the next Vice Chief of the Naval Staff on the same day, August 1.
