  • Captain Suvarat Magon, in Maritime Security Strategy
    海幹校戦略研究 2019 年 12 月（9-2） ROLE OF THE INDIAN NAVY IN PROVIDING MARITIME SECURITY IN THE INDIAN OCEAN REGION Captain Suvarat Magon, IN Introduction India is the third largest and one of the fastest growing economies in the world today based on gross domestic product (GDP) measured in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP). India is a peninsular maritime nation straddling Indian Ocean with 7,517 km of coastline, 2.37 million square kilometers of exclusive economic zone (EEZ) encompassing 1,197 island territories in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal and supporting world’s second largest population on a continental landmass of the seventh largest country. Consequently, India’s hunger for energy and need for resources to support rapid economic and industrial growth makes its dependence on the IOR a strategic imperative. In this environment of expansion of sea trade to far off and diverse shores kissed by waters of the Indian Ocean and beyond, competition with other powers to fulfill the ever-growing needs of own population and the corresponding surge towards overall development, the security of the seas is likely to be a key to progress of the nation and therefore assumes critical importance especially in the prevailing environment of multifarious challenges that range from traditional at one extant to threat of piracy, terrorism, smuggling, trafficking and hybrid type to other extant. The Indian Navy’s (IN’s) 2015 Maritime Security Strategy clearly enunciates security in the IOR as an unambiguous necessity for progression of national interests and it can thus be deduced that maritime security would continue to drive the government’s policies and navy’s strategy in times to come.

  • Coastal Defence Exercise Sea Vigil 21
    Coastal Defence Exercise Sea Vigil 21 drishtiias.com/printpdf/coastal-defence-exercise-sea-vigil-21 Why in News Recently, the second edition of the biennial pan-India coastal defence exercise ‘Sea Vigil-21’ has started. Key Points Launch: The inaugural edition of the exercise was conducted in January 2019. It is billed as India's largest coastal defence drill. Area of Operation: The 2021 exercise is being undertaken along the entire 7516 km coastline and Exclusive Economic Zone of India. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) defines an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) as generally extending 200 nautical miles from shore, within which the coastal state has the right to explore and exploit, and the responsibility to conserve and manage, both living and non-living resources. It involves all the 13 coastal States and Union Territories along with other maritime stakeholders, including the fishing and coastal communities. 13 Coastal States and UTs: Gujarat, Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, West Bengal, Daman & Diu, Puducherry, Andaman & Nicobar Islands (Bay of Bengal) and Lakshadweep Islands (Arabian Sea). Assets of the Indian Navy, Coast Guard, Customs and other maritime agencies are participating in the Exercise. The Indian Air Force, National Security Guard, the Border Security Force, oil handling agencies and airports also participate in the exercise. Coordinating Force: Indian Navy 1/2 Aim: To check the efficacy of the measures initiated to plug gaps in coastal security following the Mumbai terror attack in 2008. Multiple initiatives were set forth, including the National Committee for Coastal and Maritime Security (NCSMCS), creation of Joint Operations Centres (JOC) at Mumbai, Cochin, Visakhapatnam and Port Blair, raising of Sagar Prahari Bal (SPB), installation of the Harbour Defence Surveillance System, setting-up of National Command Control Communication and Intelligence (NC3I) Network.
