Bangladesh Navy Ship (BNS) Prottoy is on a two-day visit to Mumbai from February 14 to 15.


The vessel, commanded by Captain Ahamed Amin Abdullah with a crew of 137 personnel, is docked at Mumbai Port Trust.



Due to restrictions imposed in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, routine courtesy calls, social get-togethers, exchange visits and other sports fixtures between the visitors and host naval personnel are being avoided.

BNS Prottoy’s visit to the city is significant in the backdrop that the two countries celebrated 50 years of Bangladesh independence recently. To commemorate the occasion, for the first time, a marching contingent and military band from Bangladesh participated in India’s Republic Day Parade.
