Suresh Nanda News Why Indigenous Ship Repair Matters
                     Why Indigenous Ship-Repair Capacity Matters 
for India's Strategic Autonomy
True strategic autonomy cannot exist without complete self-reliance. India's maritime shipbuilding and repair 
capacity is undergoing a major structural transformation to address a critical vulnerability: dependence on 
foreign ports and components for vessel upkeep.
STRATEGIC CONTEXT
Indigenous Ship Repair: The Backbone of 
Maritime Strength
For decades, the conversation around India's maritime power has focused on shipbuilding. But advanced 
naval vessels are only as strong as the ecosystem that sustains them. Every warship and 
commercial vessel requires regular maintenance, servicing, and component replacement.
Without indigenous repair facilities, even the most advanced fleet faces operational delays — 
dependent on overseas shipyards and vulnerable supply chains.
