From battling a serious illness as a child in Kashmir to becoming a Naval Aviator and eventually commanding a warship in the Indian Navy, Commander Naveen Pandita’s journey is one of resilience, determination and extraordinary experiences. #IndianNavy #PNSGhazi #CDRNaveenPandita In this special episode of Rakhwale, The Lallantop’s defence show, Manas Raj sits down with Commander Naveen Pandita to discuss his remarkable journey, life in the Indian Navy and the realities of naval warfare. What does it take to build a career in the Indian Navy? What is life like aboard a warship when the sea turns violent? How do naval forces detect enemy submarines, track underwater threats and deal with dangerous naval mines? Commander Naveen Pandita takes us inside the world of Naval Aviation, Anti-Submarine Warfare and Mine Warfare, sharing experiences from his years in uniform and some of the most challenging moments of his naval career. From growing up in Kashmir and witnessing the Kashmiri Pandit Exodus to joining RIMC, graduating from NDA and becoming a Naval Aviator, his story reflects a journey shaped by adversity, ambition and perseverance. He also recalls a terrifying incident in 2002, when a steel wire rope snapped during a Replenishment at Sea operation as his ship sailed towards Mauritius, seriously injuring a fellow officer. The conversation also explores what it takes to operate a warship in extreme sea conditions, including Sea State 4 and 5, when towering waves can make life at sea exceptionally difficult.
