Indian Navy Rescue Plan

The Gujarat-based company which intends to break-up the former Navy carrier Viraat for scrap continues to offer a sliver of hope for a rescue plan that involves its transfer to Envitech Marine Consultants Private Limited which intends to convert the warship into a maritime museum.

On September 21, as Commander Abhilash Tomy lay incapacitated in the bunk of his battered sail boat, a 46-year-old Navy Captain was getting ready to carry out the most audacious rescue attempt ever attempted by the Indian Navy.
