The 43rd edition of the Indian Coast Guard (ICG) Commanders’ Conference will be held at the Coast Guard Headquarters, New Delhi from September 17 to 19, 2026. Raksha Rajya Mantri Shri Sanjay Seth will address the senior leadership of the Service on the opening day. His interaction will reaffirm the Government’s commitment to strengthening the Indian Coast Guard and enhancing its role in safeguarding maritime interests and national security.

This apex annual gathering represents the highest level professional forum of the Indian Coast Guard, bringing together Senior Commanders from across the country to deliberate on strategic, operational, and administrative priorities. Over three days, the deliberations will focus on ‘Current and emerging maritime security challenges’; ‘Operational readiness and resource deployment’; ‘Roadmap for capability enhancement and force modernisation’; and ‘Organisational priorities aligned with national maritime strategy’.

The Conference will also review ongoing initiatives aimed at bolstering indigenisation under the ‘Make in India’ programme, in line with the Government’s vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat. It thus stands as a significant milestone in the continuing endeavour to build a stronger, modern, and future-ready Indian Coast Guard, dedicated to the protection of India’s sovereign maritime interests.
