Changes

In 1830 the [[Bombay Marine]] was renamed the '''Indian Navy''', based at Bombay. The Indian Navy, a combatant force, co-operated with the [[Royal Navy]] in policing Asian waters and also carried out regular marine surveys. In 1863 it was disbanded and replaced by two non-combatant marine services based in Bombay and Bengal respectively. In 1877 it was decided to combine the Bombay and Bengal Marines into a new combatant service entitled HM Indian Marine, with Western (Bombay) and Eastern (Calcutta) Divisions - HM Indian Marine was renamed the Royal Indian Marine in 1892 and the Royal Indian Navy in 1934. <ref> Access to Archives British Library [http://wwwhviewer.nationalarchives.govbl.uk/a2aIamsHViewer/recordsDefault.aspx?catmdark=059-iorlmil_8-1&cid=1-4#1-4 ark:/81055/vdc_100000000015.0x00030c Royal Indian Marine/Navy IOR/L/MIL/16]</ref>
