Vishakhapatnam: Almost three months after the INS Sindhurakshak sank in the Mumbai harbour area, the Navy is yet to complete its inquiry to ascertain the reasons behind the accident.
“Of course, it was a tragedy that should not have happened. Lessons (from the mishap) would be learnt only after we have concluded the inquiry process. We are waiting for the floating of the boat,” Navy chief Admiral D K Joshi told media.
He said the Navy has identified five renowned salvaging firms and the force would know by Monday about the lowest bidder in the tender.
Soon after the mishap on August 14, the Navy chief had said that the Board of Inquiry into the incident would be completed within a month but the inquiry is yet to be completed.
