JMA Pilani NCC Cadet Selected for Chhatrapati Shivaji Trail Trek 2018

Love for adventure is in the blood of every youth. Adventure activities play an important role in developing personality, courage, determination, team spirit, perseverance and hard work which is essential for leadership and character building. Adventure activities, therefore, form an important aspect of the National Cadet Corps NCC Training with primary aim to develop the personality of cadets and groom them into able leaders and informed citizens of our great nation.

NCC came into being by an Act of the Parliament Act No. XXXI of 1948 designated 'The National Cadet Corps Act 1948'. This Act with 13 clauses, prescribed the formation of the National Cadet Corps in India. Activities of NCC include Institutional Training, Camp Training, Annual Republic Day Camp (RDC), Prime Minister’s Rally, Attachment Training, social service and community development, Youth Exchange Program (YEP), Adventure Based Learning, Sports and Training of Trainers.

The Shivaji Trail Trek in the Sahyadri Mountains adjoining Kolhapur offers glimpses of rich cultural heritage and history of Maharashtra. The rugged terrain, flora and fauna mesmerizes the trekker with the folklore surrounding the legendary Maratha King, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. The trek route covers Panhala Fort, Bambvade, Shahuwadi, Pandharpani, Pavankhind, Gajapur and Vishalgar Fort.

It is indeed a matter of great pride that cadet from JMA Pilani which hosts 1RAJ(I)COY NCC (JD) Troop No 23/2 Anshu Dara has been selected for the 7 day camp scheduled during 28 Nov 2018 to 08 Dec 2018 commencing and ending on different dates for different batches. On hearing the news about his selection, highly excited Anshu Dara thanked Sri Vikas Sharma JMA NCC officer for training him and Principal Mrs Booma Natarajan for constantly motivating him to be a dreamer, performer and achiever.
