India is sending military representatives, known as defence attachés, to several new countries, including some in Africa, Poland, Armenia, and the Philippines. This comes amid the dynamic situation faced by India in the Indo-Pacific, Red Sea-Indian Ocean and Eurasia.

India is increasing its military involvement in the African nation and wants to build stronger strategic relationship&nbsp;as China is becoming more active in the region.

<h2>What’s a defence attaché?</h2>

A defence attaché is a member of the armed forces serving at an embassy as a “representative of his/her country’s defence establishment abroad and in this capacity enjoys diplomatic status and immunity,” according to the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces (DCAF) piece.

Typically, defense attachés focus on bilateral military and defense relations. According to an article by DCAF, some countries also appoint attachés to handle security issues like migration or matters concerning police and justice.

Additionally, Livemint reported that defence attachés play a role in fostering communication and collaboration between their home country's armed forces and the military of the host nation.

India has begun sending defence attachés to several new countries while reportedly reducing military personnel at its missions in other nations.

According to government sources cited by the Times of India (TOI), around 15-16 new attaches from the Indian Navy, the Indian Air Force (IAF), and the Indian Army are being assigned to Poland, the Philippines, Armenia, as well as African countries like Tanzania, Mozambique, Djibouti, Ethiopia, and Ivory Coast.

This shift follows a streamlining effort that involved reducing the number of military officials at other major missions in Russia, the United Kingdom, and France, as per the newspaper report.

New Delhi plans to strengthen its strategic relation&nbsp;with these countries and boost arms exports. The military officers freed up from the streamlining process will be reassigned to countries with increased importance in defence and security cooperation.

Two youngsters, each aged 18, a businessman, a senior citizen and a fisherman led by acclaimed scuba diving instructor SB Aravind Tharunsri&nbsp;submerged themselves into the depths of the sea off the coast of Chennai. Why? The world's biggest democracy is in the middle of a heated election summer with about 97 million eligible voters set to seal their electoral verdict inside Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) starting April 19.&nbsp;

The six divers went nearly sixty feet underwater in Neelankarai in Chennai to promote voter awareness ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

The divers took with them a mock Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) and placards showing messages related to the importance of casting their vote

Speaking to WION,&nbsp;SB Aravind Tharunsri&nbsp;director of Puducherry-based Temple Adventure, said, "The idea behind doing all this 60 feet deep into the sea was to put out that even if you want to cast your vote on the NOTA, come to the polling booth and do that. But you have to come to the polling booth."

Indian voters cast their vote through Electronic Voting Machines. The voters press the key in front of their chosen candidate, and the one with the most number of votes is declared the winner. None of the Above, abbreviated as NOTA, has been provided as an option to the voters in elections since 2013. The voters have the option to press NOTA in case they do not wish to vote for any of the candidates.

A video capturing the campaign shows one of the divers talking about the importance of voting. "We organised a voter awareness programme to show that casting a vote is our duty and right."&nbsp;
