2.  Incorporation of AI-enabled software systems for advanced maritime surveillance

3. Transformation of the Information Management and Analysis Centre (IMAC) in Gurugram into a Multi-Agency NMDA Centre, hosting representatives from key national security and maritime agencies

This comprehensive upgrade will be carried out on a turnkey basis and administered entirely by the Indian Navy, marking a significant leap towards seamless inter-agency coordination and national security readiness.
