New Delhi, Jan 10 (IANS) With the aim of encouraging cadets to develop solutions to real-world challenges, National Cadet Corps (NCC) Director General (DG) Lieutenant General Gurbirpal Singh on Friday inaugurated ‘Idea and Innovation Competition’ at the NCC Building in the national capital.
Before the competition, the NCC organised a series of workshops and contests across India under the aegis of all 17 NCC State Directorates, with the aim to inspire and meet the aspirations of cadets.
The unique initiative has been taken up for the first time in NCC Republic Day Camp to provide cadets with the tools and guidance to think critically and develop solutions to real-world challenges, a statement said.

The ‘Idea and Innovation Competition’ resonated deeply with the cadets, and emphasised entrepreneurship, problem-solving, and the spirit of innovation in the cadets.
These initiatives not only underlined the NCC’s dedication to nurturing future leaders but also boosted the potential of young minds in addressing pressing societal challenges.
The aim of the initiative was to align NCC training with contemporary aspects and give exposure and opportunities to cadets towards ‘Yuva Setu’ and prepare them for ‘Viksit Bharat’.
