Rear Admiral Alok Ananda, Assistant Chief of Naval Staff (Policy and Plans), undertook a strategic visit to the Forward Operating Base (FOB) Okha and Porbandar from July 2 to 3, 2025. The purpose of the visit was to assess the progress of key land and infrastructure development initiatives, marking a significant step in strengthening the Indian Navyโ€™s footprint along the Gujarat coastline.

During his inspection, Rear Admiral Ananda held comprehensive senior officers from the Gujarat and Daman and Diu (GD&D) Area. The focus was on accelerating critical upgrades to base infrastructure, which are viewed as essential to reinforcing Indiaโ€™s coastal defenses amid rising regional security concerns.

Gujaratโ€™s naval assets, including INS Dwarka, hold strategic importance due to their proximity to the Arabian Sea and the International Maritime Boundary with Pakistan. The establishment of INS Dwarka in the aftermath of the 1965 war, and the subsequent bifurcation of the Maharashtra and Gujarat Naval Area commands in 2015, reflect Indiaโ€™s evolving maritime doctrine and the need for focused coastal security operations.

This visit comes at a time when the Indian Navy is pushing toward its long-term vision of fielding a 200-ship and 500-aircraft force by 2050. As of January 2025, 64 vessels are under construction, reinforcing Indiaโ€™s resolve to modernize its maritime capabilities. The enhancements in Gujarat are also a response to rising tensions in the region, including security escalations following the Pahalgam attack earlier this year, which led to increased naval drills and anti-ship missile testing in the Arabian Sea.

Rear Admiral Anandaโ€™s visit underscores the Navyโ€™s forward-looking approach to maritime preparedness and the pivotal role Gujarat is expected to play in Indiaโ€™s future naval operations.
