Indian Navy chief Admiral Sunil Lanba called on Jammu and Kashmir Governor N.N. Vohra at the Raj Bhavan in Srinagar on Sunday and discussed ways to encourage youth from the state to join Indian Navy.

The Governor sought Admiral Lanba's advice regarding the recovery of Wular and Dal Lakes and how a large number of youth from the Valley could be enabled to join the Indian Navy.

The Governor and the Navy Chief discussed a range of issues relating to effective National Security management, including the challenges being faced in Jammu and Kashmir.

Governor Vohra thanked Admiral Lanba for the role played by the Navy during the 2014 floods in the state and recalled how the MARCOS, using their Gemini boats equipped with high-tech gadgetry, established waterways to enable the boats of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and other agencies to operate safely and save hundreds of lives.
