“The Navy shall ‘upright’ the ship and make her operational in the shortest possible time,” Navy spokesperson D.K. Sharma said.

India is a "Jugad" nation = Quick fix nation, hence I believe above statement.

I believe it's the quick fix spirit that caused the mig -21s to fall constantly.

This ship will be a target piece soon?

Nice find! Except INS Betwa is still in active duty, and ARA Santisima Trinidad had been already a museum piece since 1989, 24 years prior to the accident.

You guys really enjoy this "at-least-someone-else-is-just -as-incompetent-as-we-are"?

India will soon announce that they will recover the sub that sank three years ago.

May be, but who will help you in salvaging your brain which is meant to work using logic but drowned in the ocean of stupidity and blind hatred.

A couple of maritime accidents never makes a Navy incompetent. Even though it is made clear that it is a fault of the dock. But we all know that it is in the logic of PAKISTANIS to enjoy what ever that happens against India.

Keep going.

MiG-21 accident rate has drastically reduced and was and is far safer than tin can Chengdu F-7s

Also the ship will once again be a guided missile frigate.

Just stick with the facts. Also, I'm not Pakistani but what do you have against them? If you do not like them, then you should not join their forum.

No big difference. Both are as hostile as each other towards us. If they don't want Indians in this forum, they shouldn't have allowed us.

Naval Accidents

INS Betwa, a frigate, met with an accident on 5th December, 2016. During undocking, the ship tipped over to her Port side and is presently resting on the dock floor. The extent of damage has not yet been ascertained and would be determined after up-righting the ship. No other incident of this kind has occurred in the last three years.

A Board of Inquiry has been set up to investigate the incident. To protect its assets, the Indian Navy Safety Organisation was set up in October 2012. At the apex level, the organization comprises Safety Class Authorities (SCAs) who are responsible for analysing incidents and accidents, reviewing safety regulations and procedures, issuing policy directives and conducting safety assessment during the Operational Readiness Assessment.

This information was given by Minister of State for Defence Dr. Subhash Bhamre in a written reply to Shri Venkatesh Babu TG in Lok Sabha today.

New Delhi: Indian Navy's missile frigate INS Betwa, which toppled over during undocking in December last year, has been made upright and will be operational before April 2018, an Indian Navy official said.


The Indian Navy on January 16 signed a contract with Resolve Marine to salvage the 3,800-tonne Brahmaputra-class frigate. The cost of getting the ship upright was around Rs 20 crore.

The same firm had earlier salvaged submarine Sindhurakshak that which exploded and sank on August 14, 2013 killing 18 crew members.

The Indian Navy will now take over the ship's repair.

An official told IANS the assessment of the extent of damage is going on, adding that it would be made operational before the scheduled date of its refit, which was April 2018.

The vessel was undergoing a refit at the dry dock in the naval dockyards in Mumbai when it slipped during undocking, or the process of re-floating a ship back in water, on December 6, killing two and injuring 14 naval personnel.

The frigate slipped from her dock blocks and tilted. Officials initially said it appeared that the dock block mechanism had failed.

A Board of Inquiry headed by Flag Officer, Offshore Defence Advisory Group Rear Admiral Deepak Bali was ordered to look into the incident.

INS Betwa -- inducted in the navy in July 2004 -- was part of Task Force 54, tasked to evacuate nationals of India as well as those from Sri Lanka, Nepal and Lebanon married to Indian nationals from the conflict zone during the 2006 Lebanon war, as part of Operation Sukoon.
