The Indian Ocean Ship SAGAR, a unique operational initiative by the Indian Navy, sends a strong message of collective commitment from partners, the Indian envoy to Singapore said.
The ship, with 38 international crew members from 16 friendly countries, is visiting South East Asia for collaborative maritime security.
High Commissioner of India to Singapore, Dr Ambule Shilpak, welcomed the ship and guests at a special reception, saying the IOS SAGAR initiative reflects India's collective vision of 'leadership through partnership, strength through unity, and progress through peace.'
The mission completed its Singapore Harbour Phase from March 16-29, 2026, enabling professional exchanges, training, and coordination among participating personnel.
The ship is scheduled to make port calls at Yangon, Chittagong, and Colombo before concluding the deployment at Kochi by mid-May.
