Following the lecture, a documentation-assistance desk was set up, where aspirants had their papers verified and essential requirements explained. This initiative would help ensure smooth participation in the forthcoming physical tests, the spokesman said.

He observed that such engagements play a vital role in motivating the younger generation, offering them guidance, and equipping them with the necessary knowledge to succeed in recruitment.

The event underlines the commitment of the military towards supporting and empowering local youth, the spokesman added.

In another initiative, a BSF spokesman said that in a commendable initiative to empower local youths, the 111 battalion, BSF, launched a five-day coaching program on Monday at its Satakha headquarters in Nagaland to prepare candidates for recruitment into the CAPFs.

The program has received an overwhelming response, with more than 120 boys and girls registering, and a pre-medical screening was also conducted to ensure the eligibility of participants, he said.

Classes, held from 9 a.m. to 12 noon, five days a week, are conducted by qualified BSF instructors well-versed in recruitment patterns. The curriculum covers academic preparation, physical fitness training, and the provision of study materials to support effective self-study.

The spokesman said that this initiative reflects the BSF's commitment to youth empowerment, discipline, and nation-building, while motivating local aspirants to serve the nation through CAPFs.

Wonderful to see such efforts in remote areas. The documentation assistance desk is particularly helpful - many aspirants struggle with paperwork. Hope more such camps are organized across border states.

The 5-day coaching program with qualified instructors is exactly what aspirants need. Physical fitness and academic preparation both are crucial for CAPF exams. Good thinking BSF!

The pre-medical screening is a smart move. It saves time for both candidates and forces by filtering eligible candidates early. Hope they continue this program regularly.
