Tripathi, Chief of Personnel from Naval Headquarters, New Delhi, attended the meeting through videoconferencing.
All agencies involved in training of officers and sailors in the Navy reviewed the ever-changing complexities of the maritime environment in India’s neighbourhood and discussed methods for exploiting niche areas of technology to expand their knowledge frontiers.
