    Adm SM Nanda

    We are very sorry to learn about the passing away of the brave Admiral who led the Navy to Victory in 1971. I remember him as a great hero who planned and conducted operations of both fleets, organised, trained and led the Naval elements of Mukti Bahini. All this with the threat of US Seventh Fleet lurking close by.
    May his soul rest in peace.
    Lt Gen KK Khanna, PVSM, AVSM** (Retd)

    Dear Sir,
    All officers/ members of Retired Defence Officers Association (RDOA) deeply mourn the loss of Admiral SM Nanda. May GOD give strength to the family members to bear the loss.
    In sorrow
    On behalf of RDOA
    Secretary RDOA
