NATIONAL CADETS CORPS(NCC)

National Cadets Corps is a voluntary organization which is administered through the Ministry of Defence. The Defence Secretary is overall in charge, who is responsible to the Govt of India for efficient functioning of the NCC and other matters. A NCC cadet by the very fact of being an active cadet must shoulder extra responsibilities unlike her fellow classmates who are not members of NCC. Her responsibilities are nowhere written but obligatory as an outcome of her training. Thus, she fulfils the main aims of NCC i.e., becoming potential leader with character qualities and responsible citizen. She has separate responsibilities to her NCC unit, organisation, her institution, society and towards the county. It includes active participation in social awareness initiatives, environmental issues, disaster relief, adventure and sports activities and other nation building efforts. It doesn’t end with her NCC training at institution but has to be carried forward to wherever she is going to be engaged in the future too. Thus, with passage of time, country would have had passed cadets occupying leadership positions in all walks of life adopting the noble values and objectives on NCC. At present St. Bede’s College is under 7 HP (I) Coy NCC, Shimla where 75 cadets are enrolled. It was established in July 2020.
