When their Indian Territorial act was passed, the University Corps was replaced by the University Training Corps (UTC) in 1942. The University Training Corps was renamed as the University Officer Training Corps (UOTC). The need to create a youth organization at the national level, a committee under Pandit H.N. Kunzru was set up in 1946. Recombination of this community paved the way of formation of NCC. Thus the National Cadet Corps came into existence on 16the July, 1948 under the National Cadet Corps act XXXI of 1948 under the Ministry of Defence (MOD). The motto of NCC is Unity and Discipline.
