- A.Admiral Krishna Swaminathan
- B.General NS Raja Subramani
- C.Paramesh Sivamani
- D.Sanjay Seth
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Paramesh Sivamani, who heads the Indian Coast Guard as its Director General and discussed national and maritime security issues with the minister and the commanders. Option A is wrong because Admiral Krishna Swaminathan is the Chief of the Naval Staff, whom the commanders will meet separately during the conference. Option B is wrong because General NS Raja Subramani is the Chief of Defence Staff, also scheduled to interact with them for inter-service collaboration. Option D is wrong because Sanjay Seth is the Raksha Rajya Mantri, the minister who addressed the opening day and not an officer of the force.
