MIT NCC TROOP

"National Cadet Corps" is considered to be the second line of defence for the country. Youthful, energetic, sincere & patriotic boys & girls come together and work as NCC cadets, with the motto, "Unity & Discipline". On MIT campus, the activity of NCC was started in the year of 1995, with a minimal number of cadets. Within the span of next nine years, the troop has grown & developed into a huge family which has cadets belonging to three different wings of NCC. National cadet corps & allied social, adventure & cultural activities constitute special feature of this premier professional institution Training is rigorous & is conducted regularly; this includes weekly theory classes on service subjects, basic foot drill & weapon drill. Apart from this, social service & social exposure is an important aspect of training. With this in mind we started with the activity of blood donation on the campus. Another social service project is being carried out at 'CIPLA - Palliative Care & Training Centre". Troop members provide voluntary help throughout the year except during examination period. So as to carry out all the above mentioned activities the total strength of the troop is divided into five committees. Every committee has around 20 members including a leader & two sub leaders. Here's a glimpse in to the five committees: Blood Donation Committee: To educate the youth about utmost importance of blood donation & to motivate them to participate in all the activities related to blood donation. Academics Committee : A system for improvement in academic performance of troop members Cultural Committee: Showcase true Indian spirit through its performances at CIPLA, our annual social gathering & other social occasions. Aero sports & Water sports Committee:organized & conducted variety of activities including trekking, water sports such as kayaking, sailing & rowing, ship modelling, aero sports. Publicity Committee: Reach maximum number of like minded people & making them aware.
