India to deploy Fighter Plane in Andaman and Nicobar Islands for the first time since WWII


For the first time since World War II, India has decided to deploy Fighter Plane in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands to counter China. The effort of India is to strengthen its hold in the western region of the Indian Ocean, with important Straits of Malacca, Sunda, Lombok and Omai Vetta Vetre. Straits of Malacca, Sunda and Lombok are narrow maritime routes connecting the Indian Ocean to the Southern China Sea. 70% of the world trade goes through these narrow roads.
