CHENNAI: As part of a good will visit, the city will be playing host to a Coast Guard ship from Bangladesh which will be visiting Chennai Port this week.

The ship named BCGS ‘Tajuddin’ which is slated to be here for three days for an operational turn will be a guest in Indian waters and its crew will, for their part, enjoy the hospitality of the Indian Coast Guard from February 14 to 17 including a welcome ceremony on the day of the vessel’s arrival.
With an eye to kindle mutual interaction and develop inter-operability between the two maritime coast guards, several mid-sea events have been planned by the Indian Coast.
As part of cross-training, a Bangladeshi crew will be visiting on ‘ICGS Samudra Paheredar’ and ICG crew will visit Bangladesh Coast Guard ship BCGS Tajuddin . Visit to Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Center (MRCC) / Remote Operating Station (ROS) has also been planned for Bangladeshi crew.
