The Indian Naval Sail Training Ship INS Sudarshini sailed into New York Port to represent India at the United States International Naval Review 250 and Sail4th 250 celebrations. During the Parade of Sail along the Hudson River yesterday, the iconic three-masted barque proudly flew the Indian Tricolour, celebrating India’s rich maritime heritage and centuries-old seafaring traditions. The visit is part of the ship’s 10-month transoceanic expedition, Lokayan 2026, which reflects the Indian Navy’s commitment to strengthening maritime cooperation, building international goodwill and deepening engagement with partner navies. After successful participation in the SAIL 250 events at Norfolk and Baltimore, INS Sudarshini is now berthed at Brooklyn for the Sail4th 250 celebrations marking the 250th anniversary of the United States’ independence.
