Arunachal Gets First NCC Training Academy in Pasighat
PASIGHAT, August 10:
Chief Minister Pema Khandu today inaugurated the NCC Academy Complex at Pasighat, marking the opening of the first NCC Training Academy in Arunachal Pradesh and the second such academy in the Northeast after Tezpur, Assam.
Minister Ojing Tasing, State BJP President Kaling Moyong, BJP Spokesperson Mutchu Mithi and other dignitaries were present during the inauguration.
The new academy is aimed at providing young people with a dedicated space to learn, train and develop leadership, discipline and a sense of responsibility.
The complex has been equipped with cadet barracks, JCO and NCO quarters, a guest house, training and administrative facilities, and other essential infrastructure required for NCC activities.
Speaking at the event, CM Pema Khandu highlighted the importance of the academy in expanding quality NCC training opportunities for the youth of the state.
He said the facility would be particularly valuable for young people from remote, eastern and frontier areas of Arunachal Pradesh, allowing them to access structured training closer to their home regions.
The academy is expected to play an important role in nurturing disciplined and confident youth while encouraging leadership, teamwork and a spirit of service.
The establishment of the Pasighat academy also strengthens Arunachal Pradesh’s NCC infrastructure and reinforces the organisation’s core motto of “Unity and Discipline.”
