18 Sikh helping youth of Manipur for Army Recruitment
18 SIKH under the aegis of 9 Sector Assam Rifles of IGAR(S) has extended its helping hand to the local population of Manipur, by training the best of the Manipuri Youth for the army recruitment rally to be held from 21 July 2012 to 29 July 2012 at Senapati.
A total of 13 young Manipuri’s were selected after trials at various levels. These candidates are being given basic military training so that they achieve the desired physical standards of the recruitment rally for their final selection. They are being provided with all possible facilities and amenities to enable them to perform well at the rally and get selected for Indian Army.
These candidates are given a feel of Army life through lectures and motivational talks given to them by Training Team of 18 SIKH. They are being imparted adequate military knowledge and are told about importance of discipline, integrity and honesty in the Army. A proper and systematic physical training is being imparted to them by a physical instructor so that they can achieve the physical standards required by the Army during their recruitment.
This is, perhaps, the first such initiative by Indian Army in this area and would go a long way in building and cementing faith of local Manipuris in security forces, besides providing employment opportunities to Manipuri Youth and wean them away from militancy towards a normal healthy life.
