Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday (June 21, 2026) commissioned three indigenously-built naval ships at the Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port in Kolkata.
The three indigenously built frontline platforms — stealth frigate Dunagiri, survey vessel (large) Sanshodhak, and anti-submarine warfare shallow water craft Agray — represent key operational capabilities across maritime combat, hydrographic surveying and anti-submarine warfare.
West Bengal Governor R.N. Ravi, Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari, and Indian Navy Chief Admiral Krishna Swaminathan were among the dignitaries present at the commissioning event.
