NEW DELHI, Dec 4: President Ram Nath Kovind on Saturday said that besides safeguarding the country’s maritime security and protecting its interests in the sea, the navy also played a stellar role in managing the Covid-related crises.
“Indians remain grateful for your service,” the president said, greeting all Navy personnel, veterans and their families on the Navy Day.

“On Navy Day, greetings to all Navy personnel, veterans and their families. Besides safeguarding maritime security and protecting our interests in the sea, our Navy also played a stellar role in coping with the COVID-19 related crises. Indians remain grateful for your service,” Kovind tweeted. (PTI)
