NEW DELHI (PTI): Defence Minister A K Antony on Tuesday asked stakeholders to work for an early delivery of the warship and said responsibilities would be fixed in case of further slippages in the project.
The Indigenous aircraft carrier, being built in Kochi, was to be inducted into the Navy by 2014-15 but now the proposed induction has been decided for 2018 and the cost of the project has also gone up.

The Minister was reviewing the progress in the construction of the aircraft carrier being built by the Cochin Shipyard Limited.
