The Indian-flagged vessel 'Jag Vikram' has successfully docked at Deendayal Port Authority in Gujarat, carrying Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). It navigated the risky Strait of Hormuz under a two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran, marking a significant transit since early March as tensions persist in West Asia.

The Indian-flagged vessel 'Jag Vikram' has arrived safely at Deendayal Port Authority in Kandla, Gujarat, carrying 20,400 metric tonnes of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). The arrival comes amid ongoing tensions in West Asia.

'Jag Vikram' successfully crossed the Strait of Hormuz during a temporary two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran, marking a significant maritime achievement. The vessel anchored on Tuesday night at Oil Jetty-1, according to a statement from the Deendayal Port Authority.

This event marks the ninth transit of an Indian vessel exiting the Persian Gulf since early March, while approximately 15 other Indian-flagged ships remain in the region, awaiting safe passage, as reported by government officials.
