The Indian Navy is all set to join the global elite club today when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh formally launches the indigenously-built nuclear-powered submarine INS Arihant at the naval dockyard of the Eastern Naval Command in Visakhapatnam.With the launch of the submarine, India will join the exclusive club of United States,Russia,China,France and the United Kingdom with similar capabilities.
With India sticking to its decision of a 'no-first-use' policy regarding nuclear weapons,a nuclear capable submarine is a must to guard against and act as a deterrent rouge nations like pak and china.
