NEW DELHI: Indian Navy Chief Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi has called upon representatives from 30 countries to share ideas for building a safer, stronger and more prosperous maritime order.
In a video address to the IndoPacific Regional Dialogue 2025, the country’s premier international conference on maritime strategy, diplomacy, and cooperation, Admiral Tripathi said, “Over the years, the Dialogue has evolved into a premier platform for the nations of the region to come together, share perspectives and explore new opportunities for cooperation under the Indo-Pacific oceans initiative.” He said this year’s Dialogue is being held under the broader maritime vision of #MAHASAGAR as a vital forum fostering collaboration and capacity-building.
He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of MAHASAGAR — Mutual and Holistic Advancement for Security and Growth across Regions — places capacity building in the heart of our collective maritime progress. It encourages cooperation among like-minded nations to ensure shared security and prosperity. Admiral Tripathi said the theme of Indo-Pacific Regional Dialogue 2025 – “Promoting Holistic Maritime Security and Growth Through Regional Capacity-Building and Capability-Enhancement” – is, therefore, both timely and apt. It reflects India’s steadfast commitment to inclusive, collaborative and sustainable maritime engagement, he said.
