Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will commission India’s second nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, INS Arighat, today in Visakhapatnam. The commissioning ceremony will be attended by key figures such as Chief of Naval Staff Admiral Dinesh Tripathi and Vice Admiral Suraj Berry, who leads India's strategic command. INS Arighat, also known as S-3, will operate under India's strategic command, strengthening the nation’s nuclear deterrence capabilities. This submarine is a crucial addition to India's naval fleet, following the deployment of the first SSBN, INS Arihant, and represents a significant step in enhancing the country’s maritime defense strategy.
