New Delhi, February 25

The Chief of Staff (COS), Japan Maritime Self-Defence Force (JMSDF), Admiral Hiroshi Yamamura, who is on a four-day visit to India, was accorded a guard of honour at the South Block lawns on Friday.

He also met Indian Navy Chief Admiral R Hari Kumar.

Both countries highlighted the excellent ongoing interaction between the two Navies and discussed avenues to enhance cooperation through capability enhancement and collaborative efforts.

Earlier, Admiral Yamamura paid homage to the fallen heroes at the National War Memorial. The visiting Japanese Naval Officer is a speaker at the International Maritime Seminar (IMS) being conducted by the Indian Navy at Visakhapatnam on February 27, as part of the navy’s multilateral exercise MILAN 2022, according to a statement issued by the Indian Navy.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
