We are on the road, we are on the road to anywhere,
With never a heartache, with never a care
Got no home, got no friends,
Thankful for anything the good Lord sends
We are on the road, we are on the road to anywhere
And every milestone seems to say,
That the road to anywhere, the road to anywhere
Will lead to somewhere someday

enthusiasm inspires us to continue exploring and enhancing this platform for our shared journey.
The Rajendra Crest was designed in 1972, following a process that began in 1971 after the launch of the ship. The design was based on the Dufferin crest, with minor modifications suggested by the Indian Navy's Nomenclature Committee and approved by the Ministry of Shipping.
The TS Rajendra, a training ship named after the illustrious King Rajendra Chola, served India for 21 years from 1972 to 1993. Built to train a larger number of cadets than its predecessor, the TS Dufferin, Rajendra played a crucial role in shaping the future of Indian maritime.
Rajendra's legacy extends beyond its years of service. It was a testament to India's commitment to maritime excellence, following in the footsteps of the legendary TS Dufferin. The ship's contribution to training generations of Indian merchant navy officers and naval personnel is immeasurable.
In 1993, the Government of India made a strategic decision to establish a shore-based academy, the TS Chanakya, to further enhance training capabilities and increase the number of cadets. This move marked a new chapter in India's maritime education, while also honoring the legacy of the TS Rajendra.
