Varuna, Harbour Phase

The first part of the Indo-French joint naval exercise ‘Varuna’ is being conducted off Goa from 01 to 10 May 2019. As part of the harbour phase French naval personnel visited INS Tarkash for a familiarisation visit while crew members from INS Tarkash went onboard the French nuclear submarine. In addition, Anti Submarine Warfare specialists from both sides met onboard the French warships for professional discussions and experience sharing. A friendly volleyball match was played between the crews of IN ships and the FN ships to foster camaraderie and build bridges of friendship.
