Compulsory Military Training for Youth

In a good move by govt., the defence minister proposed to give military training to the students of boarder area. Even experts believe that it will helps the civilians to defence themselves in area especially in areas affected by terrorists and moist. Students from these area should be put in training from the middle schools itself. This will not only helps students in understanding the importance of national security, but can also defense themselves from the conditions.

Although NCC training is introduced in schools and collages but this used to train the cadets about the field training. Secondly NCC is not compulsory in schools and collages. it is included as extra carricular activities. There is need to introduce it as compulsory subject in the course.

Today defence minister informed in parliament that it can be included in course as subject. He said that daily one hour training would be held in which students will know about the military and its role.They will also be trained like soldiers.

There is a successful example of military training in Punjab boarder areas in past also where villagers were trained to fight against militants.

As in Indian constitution there is amendment about the compulsory military training like many other countries. But it is not in practice.It is on individual choice about military training.

During my training in NCC we were taught various role of army.They teach us about firing, rescue operations on small scale, aware about the safety taken during any clamities. 

Training involves according to the geographical areas in NCC. Like in coastal areas they trained cadets in sea also.

There is need to implement the NCC training extensively.
