Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, on Thursday, interacted with cadets at the Republic Day Camp of the National Cadet Corps and exhorted them to grow into responsible and tech-savvy citizens who place the nation above all.

"In India's tradition, values of placing the nation above all have been instilled since childhood. The NCC is today playing a leading role in carrying forward this legacy," she said.

"I had the opportunity to witness the atmosphere imbued with the cadets' discipline, determination, and spirit of national service at the Republic Day Camp of the National Cadet Corps," Chief Minister Gupta said in a message on social media platform X.

"Along with the observation of the Guard of Honour, Band Display, and Hall of Fame, I gained insights into innovations such as the Young Disaster Friend Scheme and drone training.

In her concluding remarks, CM Gupta expressed her confidence in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision that 'today's cadets are tomorrow's leaders' who will serve the nation in diverse roles while remaining committed to India's unity, integrity, and dignity.

Calling upon the youth to march forward with a strong sense of duty, she reminded them that freedom came with responsibility and that building a developed India is a shared mission, concluding with a call to uphold the pride of the nation and the spirit of service to Mother India.

While the sentiment is good, I wish there was more focus on the practical skills like drone training and disaster management mentioned. We need more than just marching - we need youth equipped for real 21st-century challenges.

NCC camps are fantastic for national integration. When cadets from Kashmir and Kanyakumari live together, they understand the real 'Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat'. This is how we build unity.

As someone new to India, I find the NCC concept fascinating. This structured way to instill civic duty and national pride in youth is quite different from what we have back home. The focus on tech like drones is impressive.

The CM's words are good, but action matters more. Is the government providing enough funding and modern equipment to NCC units across all schools and colleges, especially in rural areas? That's the real test.

Placing nation above all is a beautiful ideal. But let's also teach our cadets to question, to think critically, and to serve by building a more just and equitable society. Patriot
