NCC @ MS

 

The NCC day is observed all over the country in commemoration of the notable day when Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru had inaugurated the first NCC Unit in Delhi on the last Sunday of November 1948. 

The National Cadet Corps (NCC) is the youth wing of the Indian Armed Forces (IAF) headquartered in New Delhi, India. The foremost motto of NCC is ‘Unity and Discipline (Ekta aur Anushasan)’. 

The school and college-going boys and girls can join NCC on a voluntary basis. NCC aims to nurture the vivacity of the young generation toward something productive for their career as well as the society. 

The cadets of Mann School (MS) have been contributing through different social-welfare activities like Traffic Awareness Rallies, Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Tree Plantation Drives and Say No to Plastic Bags. In addition, our cadets regularly distribute the cloth bags and pamphlets in the nearby areas during many social-welfare drives as a regular practice in accordance with the NCC syllabus and guidelines. 

MS cadets have got a long-standing bequest of accomplishments as they have been participating with a great enthusiasm and resilience in various activities and competitions conducted by the NCC-wing. 

In 2013, Sergeant, Himmat Singh was awarded with the sixth place in all over India and was honoured as the best player in shooting in Delhi.

Our cadets were adorned with first and second positions in Tug-of-War and Volleyball competitions during the Air-camp in 2017. 

Many ex-cadets of MS are serving in Indian Army, Navy, ITBP, IAF and CRPF. 

In addition, the NCC cadets are astoundingly contributing to accomplishing the motto of NCC, by helping the administration in distribution of ration and food to the needy during the testing times of pandemic. 

Finally, come what may, we will continue to play our role as NCC cadets to serve the nation with utmost delight.
