The decommissioning of the INS Vikrant - India's first aircraft carrier left many saddened. While Vikrant continues to live on with every Bajaj V15 motorcycle, one son of Vikrant’s solo efforts to memorialize its glorious service to the nationwill be forever enshrined in the Vikrant Memorial at Khala Ghoda by Fort area in Mumbai. They say passion can makes people do stupid things, but it’s the secret sauce that turns intent into accomplishment. Retired Commodore Mike Bhada’s passion led him to cajole, canvass and find creative ways to work the system to find a permanent memorial for the mighty mother ship. This is the story of The INS Vikrant Memorial from genesis to completion as narrated by Commodore Mike Bhada to Brigadier Neil John.
