Mumbai, April 15
The Mazgaon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd (MDL) here will launch ‘Vagsheer’, the sixth submarine under the P75 Scorpene project, on April 20, officials said on Friday.
Sea trials for ‘Vagir’, the fifth submarine of Project 75, started in February 2022.
“The sixth submarine will be launched on April 20,” an official of the defence public sector undertaking (PSU) said, adding that it would enable officials to undertake its sea trials before the commissioning. MDL chairman and managing director Vice-Admiral (retd) Narayan Prasad said presently Mazgaon Dock Shipbuilders had an order book of Rs 46,000 crore which essentially comprised six submarine projects, project 15 Bravo destroyers and Project 17 Alpha Stealth frigates.
The INS Kalvari, INS Khanderi, INS Karanj and INS Vela have already been commissioned while the sea trials of the ‘Vagir’ are under way. —

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising four eminent persons as trustees.
The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the paper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.
The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
