Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday applauded two women Navy officers, Lieutenant Commanders Dilna K and Rupa A, during his Mann Ki Baat radio programme. The women officers were praised for their courageous journey to Point Nemo, the Earth’s most remote location. The officers sailed aboard Indian Naval Sailing Vessel (INSV) Tarini as part of the Navika Sagar Parikrama II mission, overcoming extreme weather and challenges. Point Nemo, located in the South Pacific Ocean, is approximately 2,688 kilometers away from the nearest land. The officers reached this remote spot during the third leg of their journey from Lyttelton, New Zealand, to Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands as part of the Navika Sagar Parikrama II expedition.
