The Indian Naval Ship (INS) Kesari was deployed for the first phase of ‘Mission Sagar’, which commenced on May 10, 2020. The mission aimed to deliver humanitarian assistance and disaster relief to friendly foreign countries in the Indian Ocean region during the COVID-19 pandemic. INS Kesari delivered food items, COVID-related medicines, and medical assistance teams to Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles, Madagascar, and Comoros.
‘Mission Sagar’ is an initiative by the Indian government to extend assistance and support to friendly maritime neighbours.
INS Satpura and INS Shivalik are also Shivalik-class frigates of the Indian Navy, but INS Kesari, a Landing Ship Tank (Large), was specifically chosen for its capacity to carry significant quantities of relief material for the initial phase of Mission Sagar.
