==History==
Willingdon Island was reclaimed from [[Kochi Lake]] to aid the construction of the [[Port of Kochi]] in 1936. A small naval unit was set up at the location just two days prior to the outbreak of [[World War II]]. During the war, the rudimentary air strip near the port was transferred to the [[Royal Air Force]] in 1941. On 22 June 1943, the facilities were transferred to the [[Royal Navy]]. With the ongoing war, the base quickly expanded to become the headquarters of the Royal Navy in southern India.

In 1946, after the end of the war, the base was deserted and transferred to the [[Royal Indian Navy]] which maintained a small establishment of about 20 officers and 130 enlisted men. The name of the establishment was changed from ''HMS Chinkara'' to ''HMIS Venduruthy'' after the name of the original [[Venduruthy]] island. On 26 January 1950, when [[India]] became a [[Republic]], the name was changed to ''INS Venduruthy''.<ref name=hindu-anniversary>{{cite news|url=http://www.hindu.com/2006/06/24/stories/2006062421530300.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121026103146/http://www.hindu.com/2006/06/24/stories/2006062421530300.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=26 October 2012|title=INS Venduruthy celebrates anniversary|date=24 June 2006|work=[[The Hindu]]|access-date=2012-01-09}}</ref>

Following the [[partition of India]], the navy lost three major training establishments which were located in the [[Dominion of Pakistan]]. ''INS Venduruthy'' was chosen as the location to replace these.<ref name=mod-fromfile>{{cite web|url=http://mod.nic.in/samachar/dec15-02/html/ch13.htm|title=I.N.S.
