100th indigenously manufactured stealth frigate Udaygiri delivered to Indian Navy

NEW DELHI: The delivery of the indigenously manufactured stealth Frigate Udaygiri to the Indian Navy on Tuesday marked a rare landmark in the history of the Force. Yard 12652 (Udaygiri), the second ship of Project 17A stealth frigate, being built at Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDSL), became the 100th ship to be designed and delivered by the Indian Navy's in-house Warship Design Bureau. The Indian Navy in its statement said, The Project is a follow-on of the Shivalik class (Project 17) frigates active in service. Udaygiri is the second among the seven P17A frigates under construction at MDSL, Mumbai and GRSE, Kolkata. It is going to bolster the Indian Navy's blue water capabilities in future. Indian Navy in its statement added, These multi-mission frigates are capable of operating in a 'Blue Water' environment dealing with both conventional and non-conventional threats in the area of India's maritime interests. Udaygiri is a modern Avatar of its predecessor, erstwhile INS Udaygiri, a Steam Ship decommissioned on 24 August 2007 after rendering 31 years of glorious service to the nation. P-17A ships have enhanced stealth features and are fitted with 'State of the Art' weapons and sensors, a significant upgrade from the P17 class. The ships represent a quantum leap in the Indian Navy's in-house design capabilities at the Warship Design Bureau. The newly designed ships are also being built employing the philosophy of 'Integrated Construction', which involves extensive pre-outfitting at the Block stages to reduce the overall build periods. Udaygiri has been delivered to the Indian Navy, in a record time of 37 months from the date of launching. These ships are fitted with an advanced weapon and sensor suite with enhanced 'sleek and stealthy' features compared to the P17 class. The ships are configured with Combined Diesel or Gas (CODOG) main propulsion plants, comprising a Diesel Engine and Gas turbine, driving a Controllable Pitch Propeller (CPP) on each shaft and a state-of-the-art Integrated Platform Management System (IPMS). The weapon suite comprises a supersonic Surface-to-Surface missile system, a Medium-Range Surface-to-Air Missile system, 76 mm Gun, and a combination of 30 mm and 12.7 mm rapid-fire close-in Weapon Systems. As per the Navy, this ship being constructed is another example of atma nirbharta (self-reliance) in shipbuilding and employment generation. The delivery of Udaygiri showcases the nation's ship design, ship construction and engineering prowess enabled by a strong industrial ecosystem supported by over 200 MSMEs. The warship is fitted with major weapons and sensors sourced from indigenous OEMs. As per the Navy, the indigenous ship construction has the Plough Back effect. The shipbuilding requirements of the Project have led to direct employment generation for about 4,000 personnel and more than 10,000 personnel through indirect/ ancillary sources. The positive spin-offs of the shipbuilding project include self-reliance, economic development, employment generation, growth of MSMEs and ancillary ecosystem in the country, the Force said. The remaining five ships of the P 17A Class are at various stages of construction at MDSL, Mumbai and Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers (GRSE), Kolkata and would be delivered progressively by end of 2026. The Navy's Warship Design Bureau, known earlier as the Department of naval Design, is the Indian Navy's in-house Design Organisation which has achieved self-sufficiency and self-reliance in warship design and construction capability towards manufacturing state-of-the-art warships: Aircraft Carrier, other warships and submarines.

767 farmers die by suicide in just three months in Maharashtra

MUMBAI: The Maharashtra government in the state legislative assembly on Tuesday revealed that from January to March 2025, a total of 767 farmer suicides were reported in the state, and the majority of them were reported in the Vidarbha region. The Congress MLAs asked a written question to the ruling party about rising farmers suicides in Maharashtra and particularly in the Vidarbha region, and sought details on how the state government is extending help to the deceased farmers families. The Congress MLAs also demanded an increase in the financial aid from the current Rs 1 lakh. In a written reply, Makrand Patil, rehabilitation minister and NCP MLA, tabled the written answer on the floor of the House and ensured that the Maharashtra government extended all possible help to the farmers. The Maharashtra government provides Rs 1 lakh as financial help to the family of the farmer who has committed suicide. As per this tabled report, in three months, starting from January 2025 to March, a total of 767 farmers died by suicide, out of which 376 farmers were eligible for government compensation, while 200 farmers did not get help as they did not meet the government-set criteria. Makrand Patil further revealed that in western Vidarbha Yawatmal, Amarawati, Akola, Buldhana and Wasim, between January 2025 to March period, 257 farmers died by suicide, out of which 76 deceased farmers families got the financial help from the state government, while 74 applications were disqualified. In the Hingoli district of Marathwada, 24 farmers' suicides were reported in the three months, January 2025 to March. The Congress MLAs alleged that the state government has failed to extend the financial help to the farmers immediately and many of the eligible farmers were even deprived from getting their rightful help citing flimsy reasons. Besides, the state government clarified that there is no proposal of increasing financial aid to the deceased farmers' families. However, the state government stated that the government has undertaken various measures to stop the farmers suicides. The state government is extending the compensation to the farmers whose crops get damaged in unseasonal rain and natural calamities. Besides, under the PM Kisan Samman Scheme, the central government is giving Rs 6000 while the state government is also contributing Rs 6000 yearly to poor and needy farmers, read the note. It further reads that state government is also conducting psychological counselling sessions for depressed and distressed farmers, discouraging them from farmers suicide and even increasing minimum support price of the farmers crops. Besides, the state government is focusing on bringing as many as hectares of land under irrigation and undertaking welfare schemes for the farmers.

Nana Patole suspended from Maharashtra Assembly over unparliamentary remarks against PM Modi

MUMBAI: Former Maharashtra Congress president and MLA Nana Patole on Tuesday was suspended for a day from the Maharashtra State Assembly for allegedly using an unparliamentary word against Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a discussion on farmers' issues. Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said that Nana Patole, who was once the Speaker of the State Assembly, should have been well aware of the decorum of the House. However, he rushed to the Speaker's dais and used unparliamentary language against Prime Minister Modi. State Assembly Speaker Rahul Narvekar said that in his capacity as Speaker, he decided to suspend Mr. Patole for a day for using the unparliamentary word against the Prime Minister. On the second day of the Assembly session, Congress MLA Nana Patole raised the issue of remarks made by Agriculture Minister Manikarao Kokate and BJP leader Babanrao Lonikar against farmers. He demanded an apology from the ministers as well as Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis for what he called an insult to the farming community. Patole said that the Agriculture Minister had called farmers beggars and even alleged that they misuse farm loans for their children's weddings. He also objected to Lonikars remark that Modi is providing everything to farmers, from clothing to seeds and fertilizers, like a father. Raising his voice on the floor of the House, Patole said, Narendra Modi may be the boss of BJP and Babanrao Lonikar, but he cannot be the boss of farmers or us. Patole then entered the well of the House and rushed to the dais of the State Assembly Speaker Rahul Narvekar, demanding an apology and a discussion on the issue. After being suspended for a day, Patole said that having resigned from his Member of Parliament (MP) post earlier for the sake of farmers, a one-day suspension meant little to him. He added that he was ready to give up his MLA post and even his life for farmers. They came to power promising loan waivers, minimum support price for crops, and 24/7 free electricity to farmers. Now they insult the same farmers. This is the arrogance of power but we will not tolerate the insult of farmers. We will continue fighting for them. No matter how much they try to silence us, we will not back down, Patole said.

Congress leader Kunal Patil joins BJP

MUMBAI: In a blow to the Congress in north Maharashtra, former MLA Kunal Patil, a third-generation leader who hails from a family of staunch Congress loyalists and son of ex-minister the late Rohidas Patil, on Tuesday joined the BJP. Patil, who hails from Dhule, asserted that his decision was voluntary and backed by the people. There is no pressure on me to join the BJP. I come from a tradition of public service. My supporters and voters have supported my decision. I am joining the BJP to serve the people more effectively, he told reporters after senior BJP leaders Chandrashekhar Bawankule, Ravindra Chavan, and Girish Mahajan welcomed him into the party fold. Patil lost the assembly election in November 2024 on a Congress ticket. He had previously served two terms as an MLA. His defection is seen as a significant loss for the Congress, given his family's deep-rooted association with the party for over three generations. He is the son of the late Rohidas Patil, a Congress stalwart and former state minister who held key portfolios, across successive Congress governments. In a sign of the family's importance within the party, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had visited Rohidas Patil at his residence when he was unwell in March last year and even arranged a phone conversation between him and former Congress president Sonia Gandhi. Kunal Patil's grandfather, Chudaman Patil, also served as a three-time MP from the Dhule Lok Sabha constituency between 1962 and 1971. Maharashtra Congress president Harshavardhan Sapkal criticised the move, calling it self-sabotaging. Patil's decision is self-harming. The BJP cannot nurture its own cadre into leadership roles, which is why it is stealing leaders from other parties. Kunal Patil comes from a proud Congress legacy. His father and grandfather were both prominent Congress figures who held key posts. They would be deeply hurt by this decision, he said. Leader of the Congress Legislature Party, Vijay Wadettiwar, said whoever wants to leave the Congress is free to do so. We will continue to work hard and strengthen the party in Maharashtra. Patil's exit follows that of former Pune MLA Sangram Thopte, another Congress loyalist, who switched to the BJP in April, further reflecting the growing attrition within the Congress's traditional base.
