Kamalanagar, 24 August 2026: The Kamalanagar NCC Fraternity Meet, 2026, organised by the NCC Unit of Govt. Kamalanagar College under the 2nd Mizo Battalion NCC, was held at the Art & Cultural Hall, CADC, Kamalanagar, today. The meet was the first of its kind to be held in the Kamalanagar area. Dg. Nirupam Chakma, Hon’ble Chief Executive Member (CEM), Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC), attended the programme as the Chief Guest, while Pu Lalmalsawma Ralte, SDPO, Chawngte, was the Guest of Honour.

The programme was also attended by former MLA Dg. Buddha Dhan Chakma, Dr. Satyajit Das, CTO, Govt. Kamalanagar College NCC Unit, and representatives of local NGOs.

Speaking at the programme, the CEM said that NCC helps young people develop discipline, confidence, leadership and a sense of responsibility. Referring to the NCC motto, “Unity and Discipline”, he said that these values could help young people become responsible citizens.

He spoke about the relevance of NCC for students in CADC, particularly those from remote areas. He said NCC provides opportunities for students to attend camps, participate in activities at the national level and interact with students from different parts of the country. Such exposure, he said, could help students gain confidence, learn from new experiences and become aware of opportunities beyond their local areas.

The CEM also spoke about the benefits of NCC for students pursuing higher education and careers. He referred to scholarships, competitive examinations and opportunities available in the Armed Forces and other uniformed services. He said that the discipline, physical fitness, teamwork and leadership experience gained through NCC could also be useful in students’ studies and future careers.

He encouraged more girls from CADC to join NCC, saying that participation in the organisation could help them build confidence, maintain physical fitness and develop leadership skills. He also encouraged young women to consider careers in fields such as the Armed Forces, administration, entrepreneurship, teaching, science and other professions.

The CEM called upon the youths of CADC to join NCC in greater numbers and make use of the opportunities available through the organisation. He assured that the CADC would extend support to initiatives relating to youth, education, discipline and national integration.

He congratulated the officers, instructors and cadets of the 2nd Mizo Battalion NCC for organising the meet and wished them success in their future activities.
