India's secret naval base on a serene island in the middle of the Indian Ocean! This military base will be used to increase its power, pride and dominance in the Indian Ocean. Just a few days ago, the international news channel Al Jazeera in Qatar made this claim based on its own research and hinted at India's strong military presence at sea.

Al Jazeera claims that India is building its naval base on the island of Agalega, 1,100 km from Mauritius. Satellite image, based on ongoing construction activities on site, claims that construction work is progressing very fast. There, India is building an international standard runway so that any aircraft can land easily.

Where is Agalega Island located?

Agalega Island is a small island in the Indian Ocean owned by Mauritius. Agalega is located about 1,000 km north of the main island of Mauritius. It is 12 km long and about 1.5 km wide. The population is very small. An estimated 300-350 people live there.

In particular, the area where Agalega Island is located is home to the US military base Diego Garcia (China's military base Djibouti), and France's military base Reunion. All these military bases are at sea. With an area of ​​only a few km, this military station has immense strength. Only the army and the president know the true strength. The implication is that the Indian Ocean has been extensively militarized on India's backyard. It is the world's ocean region where two-thirds of the world's fuel is supplied.
