Indian Navy's Sail Training Ship INS Sudarshini arrived at the Port of Baltimore, Maryland, USA, on June 26, 2026, as part of the landmark transoceanic expedition, Lokayan 26. The passage from Norfolk involved transit through the historic Chesapeake & Delaware (C&D) Canal beneath major mid-Atlantic bridges.
INS Sudarshini's visit to Baltimore highlights India's rich maritime heritage and the enduring bonds of friendship and cooperation between the Indian Navy and the United States Navy. During her stay, the ship will undertake maritime engagement, and community outreach activities ahead of Sail250 Maryland celebrations commemorating the 250th anniversary of the United States.
Prior to arriving in Baltimore, Sudarshini participated in Sail250 Virginia celebrations at Norfolk from June 19-23, 2026, joining tall ships from across the world and representing India in the Parade of Sail and the City Crew Parade.
Having sailed over 13,000 nautical miles in five months from Kochi to Norfolk, the transoceanic voyage stands as a testament to India's seafaring traditions and the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, fostering friendship, cooperation, and mutual trust across the oceans.
