Apart from the three defence chiefs, Lanba is also expected to meet Israeli defence minister Avigdor Lieberman, an official spokesperson said. Israel is a major arms supplier to India. The navy chief, who is also the chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Committee, said on Thursday that Israel and India enjoyed an “in-depth defence relationship and the two sides will exchange notes”, but did not elaborate on his visit.
