Explanation
The Andaman and Nicobar Command, raised in 2001, is India's first tri-services theatre command. It integrates the Army, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard under a single commander-in-chief. It is not a cyber command, not a Navy-only command, and not limited to the Navy and Coast Guard. Hence it is a unified command of all four services.
