I had a dream to serve the country. That's why I want to join the Indian Army. When I passed HS, I first applied for recruitment in the Indian Army. 3rd January 2018 I was my first recruitment then I was physical and medical clear then I was very happy then gave us the date of written examination by recruitment agencie. I and one of my brothers, both, had passed, together, we both started preparing for the written examination. When we went to take the exam, my brother had a C-Certificate of NCC, that is why he did not have to give his written examination and I had to give the exam. When the results came, there was no Mara name in that list, but my brother's name was, My brother got a job in the Indian Army. Then I thought I would also join NCC. Then I reported in which college NCC is very good in our district. I got 4th Assam BN NCC at Karimganj in Karimganj College. Then I first joined the college, and to join the NCC, I approached the unit and told them to talk to the college's ANO. Then I saw the NCC enrollment notice in the college notic board and I contacted them and filed the form for joining NCC.He gave me the date of NCC selection 5th August 2018 I was very pleased. NCC Selection first step to Entered the Incredible Journey for everpleased ,We were a total of 282 candidates and had vaccancy 37 in this college for NCC. In my Selection of NCC Senior of my respected College (Karimganj College) they are looking for 1.” A “ Certificate Holder 2. State or National Sportsman 3. Camp certificate Holder ( son or daughter of Ex – servicemen’s ) In that time I don’t have any State , National Sport Certificate’s or I’m not a “ A “ certificate Holder or Camp certificate holder. When I'm pursuing the Selection “ I believe in Myself “ I did it perfect in every selection Event like Running of 100 mts, Height check , Push up, Pull-upVoice Command Check by asking our name etc. The 182 candidates were strong, so the longer the selection process, the more tight the process was. I was getting out of a very strong candidate process after another, but I had a feeling for myself and my confidant was spent as time went on at the end of selection,I didn’t know how but we had done & got our name in Final Selected Cadets list I just Shocked In that time then the journey starts… So, Here I give you a live example of “ Self belief “ had Worked me instead of those NCC “ A “ Certificate , For Camp Certificate , Sports State or National Certificates. Our Battalion was under the Assam Regiment.4th Assam BN NCC, Karimganj. After this, people started practicing drill for 15th August Independence Day in the morning and Evening we participated in the independent day and took the 1st prize in the Armed Drill. How I become a Good Cadet in front of my ANO ( Associate NCC Officer ),& College Seniors & Pi staffs . After three to four months, I got LCPL rank, followed by CPL and SGT rank in the first year of NCC. I was always active in NCC, so when I got up in the Second year of NCC, I was made the Battalion Havildar Major (BHM). Then we did a lot of social work like Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, tree plantation, traffic control, Blood Donation Camp,etc and also work together with the District authority. I’m very much interested to go RDC Camp, Delhi in the month of October 2019 the month An “ Incident happened “ which I never goes to forget in my whole life. Our entire battalion had 8th vacancy for RDC Selection Camp NER Shillong, we worked very hard to get selection last 2 week. Finally 8th cadets from the Battalion were selected by the PI staffs of our Battalion There were 4th (four) cadets from our college among with me. We were very happy we would be selected. We also submitted the form for the RDC Camp in our Battalion. Did not know when the date of going to IGC camp came near, then it was found that we are not going, we will be canceled or IGC (Selection of RDC Camp) in Shillong. Then he was very sad. We found out why we could not go to the IGC Camp. I had a dream break that day. So here I’m giving you live examples of me I failed but I cannot stop “ Trying & Trying “ of me how this can worked for me.Then I thought if I could not go this time, I would be able to go to the next year and I started preparing for the next year. After this I went to Army Attachment Camp 2020 6th January to 20th January 2020 with Regular Army held at 31 Field Regiment. Then I enjoyed the camp for the first time with everyone. After this, we got a B exam. I passed the exam with good grades. And then the college was closed for the Corona pandemic. When the outbreak of the Corona epidemic ended, the college opened, then we were promoted for the third year. And I was promoted by our ANO Sir from BHM rank to Senior Under Officer (SUO) rank. And gave me their rank by our ex SUO. Then I felt a lot of responsibility on my shoulders, did I get a responsibility? But I was confident in myself. I used to work very diligently, our college (Company)always had better representative in the entire Battalion.So I was made Company Sineor under officer (CSUO) on 13th April 2021 from SUO rank. So here also #Self belief had worked me to Become a Best Responsible CadetNCC has made us Zero to Hero. If you want to join NCC, then first look at yourself that you have done. And when your NCC is over, then see what you have done. Live exam first came to join Indian Army as a solder but Now I want to join Indian Army as an Officer. NCC gives us the motivation to think high. I wants to stop my Experiences here Only ! Because those are not a limited words to Express. Last words the life as a cadet is one of the best experiences one can ever have as it teaches them life as it is and shows how it is to be an officer in the Indian Armed Forces. Thank You for reading my NCC life Experience. Jai Hind Tagra raho 憐.

    International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies (IJIRAS) ISSN: 2394-4404 Volume 5 Issue 3, March 2018 The Wartime Situation In The Assam Province 1942-1944 Kezhangulie Metha Research Scholar, History Department Assam University, Diphu Campus, Karbi Anglong, Assam Abstract: The Japanese 15th Army of Lieutenant-General Renya Mutaguchi launched three army divisions into Imphal and Kohima in March-April 1944. In this campaign, the plan of the Japanese and the Indian National Army was to capture Imphal, Kohima and Dimapur and to advance into the plains of India. This paper is a general survey of the wartime situation in Assam, and not on the battles of Imphal or Kohima. Assam as a province in the year of the war immensely contributed to the success of the Allied forces in the India-Burma-China theatre of the war. The airlift over the ‘Hump’ following the closure of the Burma Road by the Japanese 18th Division was possible because of the land and water routes and railway lines and the airfields of Assam. The province acted as the second war front in the battles of Kohima and Imphal. It served as a platform for the Allied military mobilization and reinforcement centre and kept the British and the American forces supplied throughout the war. Both Arakan and Assam had played crucial role in the airlift operations throughout the war. Assam province was turned into a centre for the relief operation works during and after the Second World War. In the light of the above, it may be pertinent to state that Assam was strategically a very important base during the war time and directly or indirectly contributed to the victory of the Allied forces in India and Burma.

    Culture survival for the indigenous communities with reference to North Bengal, Rajbanshi people and Koch Bihar under the British East India Company rule (1757-1857) Culture survival for the indigenous communities (With Special Reference to the Sub-Himalayan Folk People of North Bengal including the Rajbanshis) Ashok Das Gupta, Anthropology, University of North Bengal, India Short Abstract: This paper will focus on the aspect of culture survival of the local/indigenous/folk/marginalized peoples in this era of global market economy. Long Abstract: Common people are often considered as pre-state primitive groups believing only in self- reliance, autonomy, transnationality, migration and ancient trade routes. They seldom form their ancient urbanism, own civilization and Great Traditions. Or they may remain stable on their simple life with fulfillment of psychobiological needs. They are often considered as serious threat to the state instead and ignored by the mainstream. They also believe on identities, race and ethnicity, aboriginality, city state, nation state, microstate and republican confederacies. They could bear both hidden and open perspectives. They say that they are the aboriginals. States were in compromise with big trade houses to counter these outsiders, isolate them, condemn them, assimilate them and integrate them. Bringing them from pre-state to pro-state is actually a huge task and you have do deal with their production system, social system and mental construct as well. And till then these people love their ethnic identities and are in favour of their cultural survival that provide them a virtual safeguard and never allow them to forget about nature- human-supernature relationship: in one phrase the way of living.

  • India Internal Security Download
    60 | IDSA MONOGRAPH SERIES in a boat in the Balimela Reservoir. The June 29 incident involved personnel from Odissa’s Special Operations Group (SOG). 130 These incidents brought to the fore the fact that despite specialized skills in warfare, these personnel must be provided with detailed intelligence on routes and specific intelligence on Naxal presence. Also, Grey Hounds can be effective so long they are backed by a sound political and social response. The biggest lesson from the Andhra Pradesh response is the fact that a comprehensive strategy of simultaneously activating a surrender and rehabilitation policy, superior intelligence network, local help (surrendered Naxalites), and the use of specialized counter-guerilla force are the necessary tools to counter Naxal violence. The next chapter deals with another theatre of internal conflict in India: the Northeast of India. 130 Ajai Sahni, “Fighting the Maoist with Mantras”, at http://www.satp.org/satporgtp/sair/ Archives/7_2.htm (Accessed on December 12, 2008). INDIA'S INTERNAL SECURITY SITUATION | 61 III NORTHEAST ARMED ETHNIC INSURGENCIES AND THE STATE'S RESPONSE One of the most geo-strategic landscapes of India is its northeastern region. Situated between China, Bhutan, Bangladesh, and Myanmar and with an international border stretching up to 4, 500 km, the region holds the promise of acting as a bridge between India and Southeast Asia in years to come. Also, the rise of China and its territorial claim on one of the states of the northeast, Arunachal Pradesh, has brought about international attention on the Northeast as a potential source of conflict between two of the rising powers of Asia.
