INS Chennai, Scorpene submarines on Navy’s R-Day tableau

New Delhi, Jan 20 – Demonstrating its capabilities and operational readiness, the Indian Navy will this year display on its tableau at the Republic Day parade the Kolkata-class stealth guided missile destroyer INS Chennai as well as indigenously-made Scorpene submarines. At a time when China’s aggressive postures in the South China Sea, and the presence of its naval ships and submarines in the Indian Ocean have raised concerns, the Indian Navy’s tableau represents its commitment towards guarding India’s strategic and economic interests.
