India invited china, no invitation to pakistan for President's Fleet Review

China has been invited to witness the President's Fleet Review in Mumbai on December 20, but no such invitation has been extended to Pakistan. "We have sent an invitation to China to witness the show in which President Pratibha Patil would review the naval might of the country", an Indian Navy spokesperson said here today, adding that no such invitation was sent to Pakistan.

President Pratibha Patil will get a glimpse of the country’s maritime power when she boards the presidential yacht, INS Subhadra, off the Mumbai coast next week to undertake a review of the naval fleet, a tradition that Dr Rajendra Prasad began in 1953. Patil, the Supreme Commander of
the Indian Armed Forces, will review the fleet on December 20 in a spit-and-polish ceremony to be attended by defence minister AK Antony, navy chief Admiral Nirmal Verma, army chief General VK Singh and IAF chief Air Chief Marshal NAK Browne.

Every President reviews the naval fleet once during his or her tenure. Patil will be the woman President to do so. A flotilla of 81 ships and 44 aircraft will take part in the parade, which will begin with Patil being presented a guard of honour and a 21-gun salute.

The warships taking part in the Presidential Fleet Review (PFR) include India’s sole aircraft carrier INS Viraat, frontline destroyers, stealth frigates, submarines, amphibious assault vessels, tankers and missile boats. The highlight of the air component will be the newly inducted MiG-29K maritime fighters.

Patil will be the 9th Indian President to review the naval fleet in a two-and-half-hour ceremony at the Mumbai harbour. Former President APJ Abdul Kalam reviewed the fleet in February 2006 off India’s eastern coast.

Only three Presidents --- Dr Zakir Hussain, N Sanjiva Reddy and Dr Shankar Dayal Sharma ---did not review the fleet during their tenures. The Shah of Iran and then defence minister YB Chavan reviewed the fleet in 1956 and 1964, respectively --- the only two instances when the honour went to individuals who were not President.

Patil will release a PFR commemorative stamp and also inaugurate a maritime heritage exhibition.

FYI
bisons are part of IAF ..Better brush up with Indian Naval aviation before posting mate.

No need to highlight that Pakistan was not invited, the Indian high command might have thought of just having a delegation on one country as a honarary guest that does not mean that Pakistan is not our honerary guest. They will be invited for Rupublic Day.
So no need to highlight the part the Pakistan was not invited.

pakistan will surely not so happy by such non-invitation,but don't upset next time we will surely invite you

 

[Doctor09]

You people think that we were expecting any such invitation from You?

 

[Nitin Goyal]

Why anyone would expect the invitation ? If pak do the same we also don't expect any invitation. we should not put china and pakistan in the same basket. India and china enjoy a healthy trade relation apart from having peaceful border.

 

[newdelhinsa]

Why such title heading and why such mentioning of Pakistan, had they ever invited Pakistan before?

Stupid Information dissemination.
