    It is always an honour and privilege to live for this great Nation, serve for this great Nation and die for this great Nation. I'm a fresher and no one from my family and friends belongs to any of the the Indian Armed Forces. So, I wanna get that honour and privilege to serve this great Nation by joining the Indian Army.

    When I was 3 years old I watched the news telecast and when I saw NSG commandos I was very fascinated that how these people are able to handle this situation it created a attraction towards uniform for me. So this is the reason I want to join Indian Army.

      Serving the country through administrative jobs is okay but serving the country by risking our life is an elite job , and there is no doubt that it's the only profession in the that decorates their men with valour and wisdom and other than that it's also the most adventurous job in India.

One day I went to the school everyone were saying there now our NCC ANO's daughter has become an army officer again I heard this name ... I thought indian army is something where everybody want to go but the difference between boys and girls is boys join as a soldier and girls join as an officer 😂...

        That glorious uniform attracts me a lot. And the other reason is here ,in the village area everyone used to think that girls are only limited up to house, cooking and other housing work. So, I want to become an inspiration to the girls of my town.

          The most important thing in life is neither hard work nor lots of money,but the discipline is that which makes difference. Armed forces gives us the power to be disciplined and live life by our choice. It's not a 9 to 5 job but it is a feeling to serve the service to motherland
