Predator drones of the Indian Navy have flown over 13,000 hours of missions across the Indian Ocean Region from INS Rajali, Naval Air Base here and helped the maritime force keep a close watch on the entire area for interest of the country.

Army chiefs and senior officers from 30 countries including the United States met in India Tuesday to discuss threats facing the Asia-Pacific region, in the face of concern at an increasingly assertive China. US Army chief Randy George said the region was «critically important», speaking to reporters alongside his Indian counterpart Manoj Pande, and vowed to boost cooperation to «maintain a free and open Indo-Pacific». Generals from Japan and Australia, which make up the «Quad» defence cooperation forum alongside Washington and New Delhi, also took part, as did Britain and France.
