India has taken a major leap in bolstering its naval defense by launching its fourth nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine. Approved by the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) on October 9, this state-of-the-art vessel is designed to reinforce India’s maritime security and strategic deterrence.
The new submarine, equipped with advanced technology and ballistic missile capabilities, joins the existing fleet of three nuclear-powered submarines. This move reflects India’s growing emphasis on self-reliance in defense and its commitment to securing the nation’s interests in increasingly complex global waters.
