Indian Navy Veterans back to their mother nation
Eight Indian Navy veterans who had received death sentences for espionage have been freed by Qatar. Currently, seven of the eight former members of the Indian Navy have returned to India. A major diplomatic achievement between India and Qatar has been reached with the release of the Indian Navy veterans and the dropping of the espionage charges against them.
The Ex-Indian Navy officers are Sailor Ragesh, Commander Purenendu Tiwari, Captain Birendra Kumar Verma, Captain Navtej Singh Gill, Commander Saurabh Vashisht, Commander Sugunakar Pakala, Commander Sanjeev Gupta, and Commander Amit Nagpal. These ex-Navy officers all served in the Indian Navy for “unblemished stints” that lasted up to 20 years. According to former military officials, all of the former Navy officers served up to 20 years in the Indian Navy during “unblemished stints” and held significant roles, such as instructors.
After returning back from Qatar, the ex-Navy personnels expressed themselves in front of media. One of the Navy veterans who returned from Qatar says, “We are very happy that we are back in India, safely. Definitely, we would like to thank PM Modi, as this was only possible because of his personal intervention…”
Other veteran said, “It wouldn’t have been possible for us to stand here without the intervention of PM Modi. And it also happened due to the continuous efforts of the Government of India.”
The veterans had waited for almost 18 months for this day. All of them are grateful to Prime Minister Modi as it would not have been possible without his personal intervention. Another one of the seven expressed himself and stated, “We waited almost for 18 months to be back in India. We are extremely grateful to the PM. It wouldn’t have been possible without his personal intervention and his equation with Qatar. We are grateful to the Government of India from the bottom of our hearts for every effort that has been made and this day won’t have been possible without those efforts.”
It is a day of relief for India and Indian Navy since one of the most promising veterans of Indian Navy are back on their land.
