Lucknow (thestates.news) | Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh and Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath jointly inaugurated ‘Nausena Shaurya Vatika’ in Lucknow on May 30, 2026. Built at a cost of Rs 19 crore over an area spanning over two acres, this Open-Air Display Museum honours the spirit, valour & prowess of the Indian Navy. It showcases the artefacts and weapon systems of INS Gomati, which was decommissioned on May 29, 2022 after 34 years of service.
Speaking on the occasion, Raksha Mantri described the Nausena Shaurya Vatika as not only a tourist attraction, but also a symbol of inspiration that would remind future generations of the true cost of freedom and security. He added that the park would serve as a constant reminder of the nation’s safety and security, safeguarded through the valour and sacrifices of its bravehearts. “It is not just an architectural design or a product of structural craftsmanship; it rekindles the sense of gratitude we hold for our soldiers. The idea is to awaken the zeal for nation-building among our youth,” he said.(s-pib)
