00:00The company said what is ships before.
00:04Once fully developed, the project will significantly enhance the Indian Navy's ability to base
00:11and sustain a large number of ships and submarines.
00:15It is also generating wider economic opportunities for this region.
00:20Today, the commissioning of the naval vessel INS Samarthag is a celebration of India's growing confidence
00:29in its own industrial, technological and shipbuilding capabilities.
00:35Samarthag is a trial and evolution platform.
00:39We support the development and evolution of the next generation weapons, sensors and other important well-developing new technologies.
00:50Their capabilities will also support maritime surveillance, offshore patrolling, launch and recovery of targets,
01:00operation of unmanned systems, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief and other emerging naval requirements.
01:10The very character of Samarthag is reflected in her name itself.
01:16Samarthag means the proponent or the supporter and the ship will indeed be an enabler of innovation, experimentation and multiple
01:31naval missions.
01:32It is therefore appropriate that Samarthag joins Indian Navy here at Garwar,
01:39a place that represents both Indian maritime heritage and its maritime future.
01:45The commissioning of Samarthag is also an important milestone in our journey towards the fair and tall of our donor
01:52-boot-premiser,
01:53another Ar irgendwann
01:54Sharma Narveedra-brahar for building a fixed board under Aadhu Manalbot عليه.
02:04With more than 75% indigenous content, Samarthag demonstrates that self-reliance, independence is no longer
02:13merely an aspiration but career. I firmly believe that Indian genius content is much more than
02:22a percentage on paper. Behind every grown grown component is the contribution of Indian designer,
02:30engineer, technician, manufacturer, MSME, starter or research institution. Every system developed
02:39within the country represents the knowledge retained within our country. Every capability created
02:47domestically strengthens our strategic autonomy. Indian Navy has played a pioneering role in
02:55this great transformation. Over the years, the Navy has moved steadily from being a buyer
03:03of platforms to becoming a builder, integrator and developer of complex maritime capabilities.
03:12The journey has been enabled by close cooperation between the Navy, Defense PSUs, Private CPRs,
03:20DRDO, Academia, MSMEs and wider industrial ecosystem prevailing in this country.
