The Indian Coast Guard’s first indigenously built and designed Pollution Control Vessel, the Samudra Pratap, was commissioned on January 5, 2026, by the country’s Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.

The 114.5 m ship weighs 4200 tonnes and can attain a speed of over 22 knots and has an endurance of 6000 nautical miles.
It will function as a vital platform for checking marine pollution, enforcement of maritime regulations, aid in search and rescue and safeguarding the country’s Exclusive Economic Zone.
It can undertake complex operations, recover pollutants from viscous oil, analyse the kind of contaminants present and also separate oil from contaminated water.
The Coast Guard received the ship at Goa Shipyard Limited, and it will help India enhance its maritime pollution response, maritime safety and security capabilities, per reports.
The ship has several modern systems, including gyro stabilised standoff active chemical detector, an oil fingerprinting machine, etc.
It also boasts a 30 mm CRN-91 gun and two 12.7mm remote-controlled guns with fire control systems.
It also has an Integrated Bridge System, Integrated Platform Management System, Automated Power Management System, shaft generator, Sea boat and PR boat with davit, and an external firefighting system.
The completion of this vessel reinforced India’s commitment to self-reliance in defence manufacturing.
