Which ongoing operation of the Indian Navy was cited in connection with the security of energy?
- A.Operation Sankalp
- B.Operation Samudra Setu
- C.Operation Urja Suraksha
- D.Operation Nistar
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Operation Urja Suraksha. While describing what the Commanders' Conference will underline, the Ministry of Defence pointed to the Navy's role in safeguarding India's maritime interests, the security of energy included, against the background of continuing conflicts in West Asia. The resolute conduct of this operation, along with the Navy's standing as a credible maritime force, was said to strengthen India's position as a preferred security partner in the Indian Ocean Region and beyond. Options A, B and D name other operations that were not referred to in this announcement. For the examination the safe approach is to link the operation's name to the phrase security of energy and to the West Asia situation, and to remember that it was mentioned in the run-up to the second Commanders' Conference of the year at Nausena Bhawan in New Delhi.
