NCC
The National
Cadets Corps (NCC) has their head quarters at
New Delhi. The cadets are given basic military training in small arms and
parades. The officers and cadets have no liability for active military service
once they complete their course but are given preference over normal candidates
during selections based on the achievements in the corps. It is a voluntary
organisation which recruits cadets from schools, colleges and universities all
over India.
The NCC (National Cadets Corps) is the biggest youth organization
in India, It was formed under the National Cadet
Corps Act of 1948. It was raised on 15th July, 1948. It can be
traced back to the “University Corps“, which was created under the Indian Defence
Act 1917, with the objective to make-up for the shortage in the Army. The
officers and cadets dressed like the army. It was a significant step towards
the Indianisation of armed forces.
The National Cadets Corps can be considered as a successor of the
University Officers Training Corps (UOTC) which was established in 1942, during
World War II. A committee headed by Pandit H N Kunzru recommended a cadet
organization to be established in schools and colleges which could train more
young men in a better way at a nation al level. It was accepted by the Governor
General and on 15th July, 1948 the National Cadet Corps came into
existence.
The motto of NCC is “Unity and
Discipline”(Ekta aur Anushasan).
It stands on four Cardinal Principals of Discipline:-
1.Obey with a smile
2. Be Punctual
3. Work hard and without fuss
4.
Make no excuses and tell no lies
