State Bank may raise as much as $1 billion, while Axis Bank, Bank of Baroda and Power Finance Corp. each plan to raise at least $500 million, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. Most of the borrowing will be for five years, the people said.

From Indo-Pacific to Pacific Command: What the US Renaming Signals​

Pooja BhattEDITOR — UPSC CONTENT

Why in News?​

On 16 June 2026, the renamed US Department of War(formerly Department of Defence) announced that US Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) will revert to its older name, US Pacific Command (USPACOM) — dropping the word ‘Indo’ that was added only in 2018. The Indian Express reported the move and its signalling for the Indo-Pacific idea, the Quad and India-US strategic alignment.

Officials stressed the change is largely symbolic: the command’s mission and its area of responsibility (AOR) — stretching from the US West Coast to India’s western maritime boundary — stay unchanged. But the optics matter, because the prefix ‘Indo’ was a deliberate acknowledgement of India and the Indian Ocean as central to US strategy.

• Decision announced by the US Department of War; framed as ‘restoring legacy’.
• Reverses the 2018 rename from PACOM to INDOPACOM made under then-Defence Secretary James Mattis.
• The command’s AOR, mission and structure are officially unchanged; only the name reverts.
• INDOPACOM is the oldest and largest US unified combatant command, set up on 1 January 1947, headquartered in Honolulu, Hawaii.
• It covers roughly 52% of Earth’s surface and over 375,000 service members.
• Congress MP Shashi Tharoor asked whether the Quad is ‘taking another hit’, linking the rename to concerns over US commitment.

The development matters in the context of:

• Tests how far the Indo-Pacific construct — a frame India helped popularise — remains the organising lens of US Asia policy.
• Feeds the debate on whether the Quad and India’s role are being quietly de-emphasised under a more China-direct US posture.
• A live example for understanding how naming and symbolism carry strategic signalling in international relations.
