Chief of the Naval Staff Admiral Robin K. Dhowan will be visiting Canada from August 5 to August 8 on the invitation of the Commander of Royal Canadian Navy (RCN).
Admiral Dhowan is reciprocating a visit made by the Commander of RCN to India in January 2013, a Ministry of Defence statement said.
During his tour, Admiral Dhowan will visit the Esquimalt Naval Base at Victoria, which is the headquarters of the Maritime Forces Pacific of the Canadian Navy.
At Ottawa, he will have bilateral meetings with senior hierarchy of Canadian Forces, including Lt.Gen. G.R. Thibault, the officiating Chief of Defence Staff, Lt. Gen. S.A. Beare, Commander Canadian Joint Operations Command and Vice Admiral M.A.G. Norman, Commander of the Royal Canadian Navy.
The visit is aimed at fostering closer navy-to-navy ties with Canada, and to explore avenues for enhancing cooperation between the two navies.
