  • from the description: INS NIRDESHAK of Indian Navy undertook Hydrographic Survey of this island in 1988 under the Commander PK Jain and one can't forget this uninhabited island known as the island of Ghosts.
  • It was a memorable experience. The Chart got completely changed because depths encountered were vastly different from the chart in use. This is an island of immense tactial importance due its location in the Bay of Bengal Area
