The Company of Master Mariners of India

We deeply mourn the passing of Capt. J. C. Anand, a legendary maritime icon and one of the most revered stalwarts of the Indian shipping fraternity. A visionary leader, pioneer, and recipient of numerous lifetime honours, he devoted decades of his life to strengthening India’s maritime stature and inspiring generations of seafarers. His extraordinary contribution to the maritime world, his unwavering commitment to excellence, and the legacy he leaves behind will forever remain etched in the annals of maritime history. He will be remembered with profound respect, admiration, and gratitude. May his noble soul rest in eternal peace.

Wishing everyone and the entire Maritime Fraternity a Happy Easter
