Even though Indian Navy's 27,800-tonne aircraft carrier INS Viraat sailed into history on Monday with the final lowering of the naval ensign and commissioning pendant in a solemn ceremony at sundown, the last word on the world's oldest warship is yet to be written.
A debate is on about what happens to the decommissioned aircraft carrier. The ship has found no buyers yet, forcing some to believe that she faces a similar fate as the 1971 war hero INS Vikrant which was reduced to a heap of scrap in 2014 after being preserved as a museum in Mumbai from 1997 to 2012.
