NEW DELHI: The Indian Navy has ordered a high level inquiry against Commodore Sukhjinder Singh associated with the Rs 11,000 crore Admiral Gorshkov (renamed INS Vikrainadlya) Aircraft Carrier deal after his objectionable photos with a Russian women were surfaced.
The photographs were reportedly sent to the Indian Navy by Indian intelligence officers. Singh is said to have influenced the performance of his official duties. The issue will be probed by an officer of the rank of Vice Admiral of Indian Navy.
Russian Aircraft Carrier Admiral Gorshkov has been in controversy for quite a long time. Its price soared from Rs 4,870 crore in 2004 to Rs 11,650 crore this year after Moscow increased the price almost three fold for refurbishing the Aircraft Carrier. The project has been delayed by about five years.
There are worries within the Defence and Intelligence establishment that the inquiry may open up a Pandoras box and may lead to involvement of other senior and naval officers associated with project.
