File photo: Ships in Hormuz NEW DELHI: For tracking ships with Indian seafarers in conflict-hit West Asia, shipping minister Sarbananda Sonowal Tuesday directed maritime regulator DG Shipping to have a comprehensive vessel-by-vessel operational dashboard to account for every such ship, irrespective of their flags.The online dashboard — for tracking their movement in Persian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman — will provide real-time information on vessel position, ownership, cargo, crew strength, crew welfare, threat assessment, intended voyage, next port of call and availability of food, fuel, medicines and communication facilities.This comes amid fresh strikes on two foreign-flagged commercial ships in the West Asia region that had 30 Indian seafarers.“The instructions are clear that every Indian seafarer has to be accounted for in this conflict zone. DG Shipping has been directed to ensure a liaison officer is appointed to look after the affected seafarers,” said an official. Shipping ministry said each liaison officer will serve as the single point of contact for families, coordinating medical updates, travel documentation, family assistance, repatriation, Seafarers Welfare Fund support, outstanding wages, contractual entitlements and other compensations.Sonowal was chairing a high-level inter-ministerial review meeting with officials from different ministries, representatives of Indian missions in Oman and Iran on the evolving security environment across Persian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman. The meeting assessed risks facing Indian seafarers and evaluated India’s contingency and emergency response mechanisms.TOI has learnt that currently there are seven Indian-flagged ships in the west of Strait of Hormuz with 148 Indian seafarers and another five foreign-flagged vessels carrying fertiliser are bound for India.The minister also directed officials to work closely with Indian missions in Iran, Oman and the UAE, and other affected nations in the region, alongside MEA, to obtain verified and realtime information relating to navigational safety, coastal-state advisories, route status, port-of-refuge arrangements, hospitals, medical evacuation, repatriation procedures, mortal remains management and the status of ongoing investigations.“Every vessel movement through the affected region, the minister directed, must be undertaken only after a fresh threat assessment, the professional judgement of the ship’s master and close coordination with competent maritime authorities,” the ministry said.Get the latest India news and live updates.

PM Modi helped prevent Putin’s tactical nuclear strike on Ukraine in 2022: Polish minister NEW DELHI: Poland’s foreign minister Władysław Teofil Bartoszewski has claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi played a key role in preventing Russian President Vladimir Putin from using “tactical nuclear weapons” against Ukraine at the end of 2022.Speaking at a press briefing on Tuesday, Bartoszewski described PM Modi as one of the few global leaders who can influence Putin and said the Russian president pays close attention to the Indian leader’s views.”Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a very well-known world statesman, who is very respected, and India has a long-standing relationship with the Russian Federation and, before that, with the Soviet Union as a non-aligned nation,” Bartoszewski said.”President Putin actually pays attention to what Prime Minister Modi tells him. I mentioned the role Prime Minister Modi played in stopping Putin from using tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine at the end of 2022,” he added.The Polish minister said India’s position and PM Modi’s relationship with Moscow gave New Delhi a unique ability to influence Russia’s approach to the conflict.”Prime Minister Modi is one of the few people who actually can exert some pressure and influence on President Putin, and that is clearly something India could do to stop this conflict,” Bartoszewski said.India’s role as a channel of communication with MoscowBartoszewski also highlighted India’s longstanding ties with Russia, saying New Delhi’s influence was significant because it came from a country that Moscow does not view as hostile.”India is a very important international player. President Putin pays attention to what Prime Minister Modi says,” he said.Discussing efforts to prevent further escalation, Bartoszewski said countries such as India and China could play a role because of their relations with Russia.”In terms of escalation, everybody is against it, not only India with Prime Minister Modi, but also China’s Xi Jinping… It’s important, especially coming from people who are not seen as hostile to Russia. India’s role here is crucial,” he said.India has consistently maintained that dialogue and diplomacy are the only way to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict. PM Modi has held several conversations with Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy since the war began in February 2022.During his meeting with Putin in Moscow in July 2024, Modi had said that “war cannot solve problems” and emphasised the need for peace and dialogue.The comments from Poland come amid continued praise from Moscow for India’s independent foreign policy and its relationship with Russia.Last month, Putin defended India’s decision-making and criticised attempts by the United States to pressure New Delhi over its cooperation with Moscow.India continues to maintain ties with both sidesIndia has maintained close strategic and economic ties with Russia while also engaging with Western countries and Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict.PM Modi visited Russia in July 2024 for talks with Putin, and later hosted the Russian president during the 23rd India-Russia Annual Summit in December 2025.While India has faced criticism from some Western countries over its continued energy and defence cooperation with Moscow, New Delhi has defended its approach, arguing that its foreign policy decisions are guided by national interests.The Russia-Ukraine war, which began with Moscow’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, has continued despite multiple diplomatic efforts.Western leaders, including US President Donald Trump, have also attempted to push for negotiations, but no lasting ceasefire agreement has been reached so far.Get the latest India news and live updates.
