Courtesy-- India Today

INS Arihant(Destroyer of Enemies), India's first SSBN to be launched on Sunday July 26th 2009.

Here is another article from Business Standard on the same.

With this launch, we are really one of the Big Boys out there. We better learn to act like one.

BJP's gift to Congress - sidelining the ever strengthening MNS in the coming Assembly polls in Maharashtra. Making the job that much easier for the Congress party.

'Arihant' means destroyer of enemies, yes; but as a name it is mostly found in Jains whose credo is non-violence. I have come across such violently non-violent Jains who have objected to and prevented me from swatting mosquitoes that were bothering me when I was visiting their premises on business.

Hope India does not put a dud in the warhead or put a bunch of 'peace' leaflets to spread, on impact.
