On 21st May, 2018 the all-woman crew of Indian Navy’s sailing vessel Tarini created history by circumnavigating the globe in a grueling 254-day voyage covering 21,600 nautical miles. This was the first of its feat ventured by all-women group. This proved beyond doubt that women are no less capable than men in doing whatever they set out to do. Pratibha Jhamwal, one of the team members of the six women crew said, “it took 2 years of preparation, dedication and belief in them by the senior officers that they could do it, that they were able to complete the task across dangerous high seas.”
