India's
indigenously-built nuclear submarine INS Arihant ventured into the sea
for the first time on Monday Dec 15,2014, marking a crucial stride towards achieving
the long-pending strategic objective of having a nuclear triad.
There
was no official word from the government over the commencement of the
sea trial, which was reportedly flagged off by Defence Minister Manohar
Parrikar.
The
minister flew to Vishakhapatnam from Goa to join the team of experts
led by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) chief
Avinash Chander.
