Anand Mahindra, Chairman of the Mahindra Group, in a recent post on his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), commended the Indian Navy for a remarkable operation that saw the rescue of an Iranian-flagged ship from Somali pirates. The ship was carrying 19 Pakistani crew members.
In the post, he wrote, "Indian Navy rescues Iranian flagged ship with 19 Pakistani crew members from Somali pirates. Just the kind of role india should play—global ‘Good Guys.’ Doing what the U.N isn’t able to do. And damn, our guys look tough & effective. Makes me feel safe!"
Anand Mahindra expressed his admiration for the Indian Navy's swift and effective response, emphasizing that India is playing a crucial role that international organizations, like the United Nations, might struggle to fulfill.
