    NEW DELHI: India’s new approach to treat any act of terror as an act of war has added a new dimension to the Navy’s operational outlook after the conduct of Operation Sindoor against Pakistan, Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi said Friday.“We must be prepared for this new normal,” the Navy chief said at an investiture ceremony here. Over 35 Indian warships and submarines led by aircraft carrier INS Vikrant, with its MiG-29K fighters, were forward deployed in a dissuasive deterrent posture against Pakistan in the northern Arabian Sea last month.“Our ships, submarines and aircraft were operationally ready and deployed, projecting strength and preparedness to deter any potential actions from our western adversary,” Admiral Tripathi said. “This rapid and measured response not only showcased our strategic reach and maritime dominance but also sent a clear message of resolve – forcing our adversary to plead for ceasefire. I would say, just in time.”The Navy’s forward deployment at the time IAF and Army launched deep precision strikes against nine terror hubs in Pakistan and PoK on May 7 ensured the Pakistan navy remained bottled up within its own shores in a defensive mode.The Navy’s role has become more critical than ever as India navigates an era filled with the complex and rapidly changing global security environment. “The shifting geopolitical and geostrategic landscape, along with various ongoing conflicts worldwide, has significantly increased the frequency, diversity and complexity of our tasks,” Admiral Tripathi said.“As the fastest-growing service, the Navy is continuously enhancing its operational capabilities by embracing cutting-edge technologies and inducting state-of-the-art ships, subs, aircraft, unmanned systems, space-based assets and Al-driven platforms,” he added.
