PM Modi Affirms India’s Commitment to Maritime Security

Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed India’s dedication to safeguarding freedom of navigation and combating piracy and terrorism in the Indian Ocean region. This assurance came after Bulgarian President Rumen Radev expressed gratitude for the Indian Navy’s successful rescue operation of the hijacked Bulgarian ship “Ruen” and its crew, which included seven Bulgarian citizens.

In response, PM Modi conveyed appreciation for the message and expressed satisfaction that the rescued nationals would soon return home safely. The incident highlights India’s proactive stance in ensuring maritime security and its willingness to collaborate with international partners to address threats in the Indian Ocean.
