Navy Day, celebrated every year on December 4th to mark the Indian Navy's victory in the 1971 war, serves as a reminder of the critical role the Navy plays in securing India's maritime borders

The nature of naval operations, often conducted in the vast expanse of the high seas, means that the general public rarely gets a chance to see the Indian Navy's powerful ships, cutting-edge equipment or tactical manoeuvres

In an exciting celebration of Navy Day 2024, the Indian Navy has also planned a performance of a spectacular Operational Demonstration off the coast of Puri, Odisha

The event is not only a tribute to India's rich maritime heritage, but also an opportunity for the general public to witness first-hand the world of naval operations, a realm often hidden from public view

The event, off Puri is a fitting tribute to Odisha's maritime legacy, an official statement of a Defence PRO said
