India Mandates Real‑Time Tracker for Every Seafarer in Gulf After Fatal Attacks
After attacks on two merchant vessels killed and injured Indian crew in the Strait of Hormuz, the government instructed the Directorate General of Shipping to launch a vessel‑by‑vessel dashboard that streams real‑time position, crew strength and welfare data for every Indian seafarer in the Persian Gulf, Hormuz and Oman. Dedicated liaison officers and round‑the‑clock coordination will back the system.
