NCC opens to private educational institutions

Dimapur, May 7 (MExN): The  Central  Government  has  allotted  nearly  5,000  Junior  Division (JD) Wing  vacancies  in a bid to open the National Cadet Corps (NCC) to private educational institutions. This move comes after long pending demands from schools who could not introduce NCC due to limited vacancies, a PIB release stated on Friday.

This will benefit the students who are keen to join NCC and contribute in nation building, along with getting ‘A’ certificate which will not only help them to get admission in professional colleges and accrue benefit in getting jobs, the release stated. Cadets will not only get basic military  training  but  also  get  to  attend  camps,  treks,  mountaineering  courses, leadership development capsules at a national level besides participating in various social  service  and  community  development  activities, it said. 

Additional  Director  General NCC, North Eastern Region, Major General Ananta Bhuyan stated that the schools which are interested in getting out of turn allotment in full self-financing schemes can approach their nearest NCC offices, the release stated.
