Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi on 30 April 2024 took over as India’s 26th chief of naval staff, succeeding Admiral R Hari Kumar who held the top post for two years and five months.
An alumnus of Sainik School, Rewa and National Defence Academy, Khadakwasla, he was commissioned into the navy on July 1, 1985.
He was the vice chief of naval staff before taking charge of the service.
After taking charge, Tripathi said, “Over the years, the navy has evolved into a combat-ready force. The existing and emerging challenges in the maritime domain mandate that the Indian Navy should always remain operationally ready to deter potential adversaries at sea in peace, and to win the war at and from the sea when asked to do so. This will remain my singular focus and endeavour.”
