The Indian Navy Day is celebrated every year on December 4. It was on this day that the Indian Navy launched Operation Trident in 1971. The precision strikes on Karachi harbour, Pakistan, undertaken by Indian Naval warships had a great impact in achieving a decisive victory. This also resulted in the liberation of East Pakistan and the creation of a new independent Bangladesh.
