KARACHI: The Pakistan Navy has said it had prevented Indian nuclear submarine from entering Pakistani waters.
A spokesman for the Pakistan Navy said on Friday that the Fleet Units of Pakistan Navy detected the presence of Indian nuclear submarine in the north of Pakistani waters. They pushed the Indian submarine out of Pakistani waters, he added.
India was trying to deploy these submarines in Pakistani waters to fulfill its nefarious designs.
In order to divert attention from the indigenous freedom movement in Indian Occupied Kashmir, India has persistently embarked upon a series of provocative actions against Pakistan. While Indian Army continues to undertake serious ceasefire violations along Line of Control (LoC) and Working Boundary, Indian Navy has also deceitfully deployed its Submarines against Pakistan with ulterior motives.
However, Pakistan Navy once again proved its vigilance and operational competence by detecting and blocking an Indian Submarine from entering in Pakistani waters. The unsuspecting Submarine was detected and localized South of Pakistani coast on 14 November 2016.
Thereafter, despite submarine’s desperate efforts to escape detection, it was continuously tracked by Pakistan Navy Fleet units and pushed well clear of our waters.
This thriving encounter of detecting Indian Navy Submarine at High Seas and its continued surveillance not only speaks very high of Pakistan Navy’s Anti Submarine Warfare capability but also reflects the commitment and resolve to defend sea frontiers of Pakistan. Pakistan Navy continues to maintain high level of preparedness and vigil to guard Sea Frontiers. —Agencies
