Mumbai, Nov. 25 -- Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi on Monday commissioned INS Mahe, the first of the Mahe-class anti-submarine warfare shallow water craft (ASW-SWC), at the naval dockyard in Mumbai. "It's a moment of immense pride and a profound sense of honour to be present at the commissioning ceremony of INS Mahe, first of the eight anti-submarine war-face shallow watercrafts being built by Cochin Shipyard Limited for the Indian Navy," General Dwivedi said in his address. Adding that the ceremony marks the induction of a potent new platform to a maritime order of battle, the Army chief said it also reaffirms "our nation's increasing capability to design, construct and field complex combatants with indigenous technology".
