Naval Fleet Review is a long-standing tradition followed by all
major navies in the world. It is an occasion when every
operational ship is spruced up, displaying its crest and ships
company in a spirit of loyalty and allegiance to its sovereign
and the state. In India, the President, as the Supreme Commander
of the Armed Forces, reviews the Fleet once during his tenure.
Review of the Indian Naval Fleet by the President of
India is held at Vizag on 12 February 2006. This was the historic
occasion for the Indian Navy and Eastern Naval Command in
particular as the Fleet Review by the President has been held
for the first time in the Eastern Coast. About 55 Naval ships
and 45 aircraft have participated in the Review.
