Shri Rajnath Singh has approved a proposal for addition of three lakh cadet vacancies in the National Cadet Corps (NCC).
This expansion will cater to the increasing demand for NCC from educational institutions. From just 20,000 cadets in 1948,
the NCC will now have a sanctioned strength of 20 lakh cadets on its rolls making it the largest uniformed youth organisation of the world.
