On the occasion of induction of INS Vikrant into the Navy's fleet, PM Modi had said, 'Vikrant is huge, Virat is, Vihangam is, Vikrant is special, Vikrant is also special.

India's lofty spirits are a hoot.

Vikrant is not just a warship.

It is a testament to the hard work, talent, influence and commitment of 21st century India.

If the goals are short, the journeys are long, the oceans and the challenges are endless – then India's answer is Vikrant.

Vikrant is the incomparable elixir of the elixir of freedom.

Vikrant is a unique reflection of India becoming self-reliant.

PM Modi had said that, INS Vikrant is not only a war machine, but also a proof of India's skill and talent.

It is special and different.

Vikrant is an example of the government's commitment to make India's defense sector self-reliant.

With INS Vikrant, India has joined a select group of countries that can indigenously build aircraft carriers.

PM Modi had said that, no matter how difficult the goal, no matter how big the challenges, no goal is impossible to achieve when India is determined. 

Unveiling the new Navy flag (mark), the PM said that India has abandoned the colonial past.

Till now the flag of the Indian Navy had a sign of slavery.
