UPSC CAPF – 2019
INS Rajput (D51) was the lead ship of the Rajput-class destroyers of the Indian Navy. Commissioned in 1980, it served the nation for 41 years before being decommissioned at Visakhapatnam on May 21, 2021. *Correction: The question states May 2019. While INS Rajput was eventually decommissioned in 2021, amongst the options provided, INS Ranjit was decommissioned in May 2019. Let’s verify the decommissioning date of INS Ranjit.* Yes, INS Ranjit (D53), also a Rajput-class destroyer, was decommissioned on 6 May 2019. The question likely refers to INS Ranjit.
