INS Sandhayak completed its first diplomatic mission to Jakarta on Friday. The Indian Navy vessel demonstrated sophisticated survey technology to Indonesian maritime officials. Personnel from both nations conducted reciprocal ship visits to share operational knowledge and establish future partnerships. The three-day engagement represents India's MAHASAGAR strategy for regional maritime advancement.

Defense Minister Rajnath Singh commissioned this indigenously built survey vessel at Visakhapatnam Naval Dockyard in February 2024. The ship conducts comprehensive hydrographic surveys of ports, harbors, coastal regions and oceanic areas. Secondary capabilities enable the vessel to perform various naval operations when required.

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto attended India's Republic Day celebrations as chief guest during his state visit. The occasion marked 75 years of diplomatic relations between both countries. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Subianto agreed to strengthen defense cooperation and enhance maritime security collaboration through regional mechanisms.
