India News Live Updates: Vice Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi

takes over as new Chief of Naval Staff

Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi on Tuesday took over as India’s 26th chief of naval
staff, succeeding Admiral R Hari Kumar who held the top post for two years and
five months.
An alumnus of Sainik School, Rewa and National Defence Academy,
Khadakwasla, he was commissioned into the navy on July 1, 1985.
He was the vice chief of naval staff before taking charge of the service.
After taking charge, Tripathi said, “Over the years, the navy has evolved into a
combat-ready force. The existing and emerging challenges in the maritime
domain mandate that the Indian Navy should always remain operationally
ready to deter potential adversaries at sea in peace, and to win the war at and
from the sea when asked to do so. This will remain my singular focus and
endeavour.”
He added that another priority would be to strengthen the ongoing efforts of the navy towards Atmanirbharta
and introducing new technologies.
