THE STORY OF INDIA'S first indigenous aircraft carrier, INS Vikrant, is synonymous with both the evolution of India's maritime power and India's warship-building prowess. The audacious dream of constructing an indigenous aircraft carrier, which germinated in the late 1980s, is also one of the boldest steps in India's dream of Atmanirbhar Bharat. When the ship is commissioned in August this year, as expected, it will be a moment of pride for the entire country, especially for thousands of our countrymen and women who were associated with the rebirth of a warship forever associated with India's glorious victory in the 1971 war, leading to the birth of an independent country Bangladesh. The fact that will happen in the 75th year of independence, being celebrated across India as the 'Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav',as also the Golden Jubilee of our victory in the 1971 War, being celebrated as the 'Swarnim Vijay Varsh', makes it even more momentous.

Apart from being a catalyst in creating industrial and technological capability in India, the figure of 76 per cent indigenisation achieved during the ship's construction implies that more than two-thirds of the cost of the ship's construction has been invested back in India's economy and its people.
