ITANAGAR, Jul 24: Discussing about promotion of National Cadet Corps activities in Arunachal Pradesh, Governor Brig. (Dr.) BD Mishra (Retd) told the Additional Director General of National Cadet Corps – North East 

Major General Raju Chauhan that more emphasis should be given to NCC programmes towards nation building.

Chauhan along with Education Secretary Madhu Rani Teotia and Cl. RK Sharma, Commanding Officer, 1 Arunachal Pradesh NCC Battalion met the Governor at Raj Bhawan today.

The governor said the cadets must have the opportunities of attending the regular NCC trainings and take ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ Certificate examinations of NCC and work hard to get selected for the Republic Day parade.

The Governor said that there must be NCC units in all the district headquarters of the state so that maximum number of eligible students can be enrolled for training.

On the issue of the academic losses to the cadets during their final months of the academic session due to participation in Republic Day NCC Camp, the Governor proposed conducting the All India NCC Camp at Delhi in August to coincide with the Independence Day celebrations. He pointed out that by changing the date of the all India camp at Delhi, the academic interest of the students can be taken care of.

The Additional Director General of NCC - North East and Secretary Education briefed the Governor on various programmes of NCC in the State. They also had a threadbare discussion on the NCC Training Area and opening of NCC Academy in the State.
