The bell installed on the first INS Vikrant which was part of the Indian Navy from 1961 for 36 years, has now been returned to the country's latest and first 'Made-in-India' aircraft carrier of the same name commissioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last year. The bell was on the first INS Vikrant in 1961 after India bought a British-origin aircraft carrier HMS Hercules and gave it an Indian name.
