The book launched by the Indian Navy and titled, "The Naval Journey of India - Tacking to the Blue Waters", was published in collaboration with Amar Chitra Katha. It tracks the history of the Indian Navy from the years of Independence till today. It travels through the Indian Navy's early years from a small unit that dreamt big, to the multi-dimensional and modern force it is today.
The book explores the Navy’s roles, as the defender of our coasts, the protector of our national security and interests, the savior in times of need, the representative of our people and Government in foreign lands, and one of the most important innovators and contributors to our country's technology and infrastructure.

This time, travel with them through the history of the Indian Navy, the wars fought by our men and women in white, the missions undertaken across the world to aid, help, and rescue people in distress and learn how the Indian Navy grew into the formidable force it is today.

"It fills us with immense joy and pride to release the second book in our series about India's Naval Journey in collaboration with the Indian Navy. At Amar Chitra Katha, our mission is to provide Indian children a route to their roots and acquaint them, inspire them and instill a great sense of pride about India in them.
