The Navy Day celebrations will be held every year on 4th December by Eastern Naval Command in the city. It was on this day in 1971 that the Missile Boats of the Indian Navy carried out a deadly attack on Karachi Harbour during the Indo-Pak War. According to a spokesman of ENC, three functions are scheduled on Friday to commemorate the event. The first activity is the Wreath Laying Ceremony at the War Memorial on the RK Beach by Vice Admiral Anup Singh, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief of Eastern Naval Command. This will be followed by an Operational Display that showcases the capability and versatility of Navy ships, submarines and aircraft.
