Army Officer as a career has always been a dream for young energetic youth of the country. Infact, there has always been a short fall of deserving candidates for this coveted career. If you have the desire to give your country more then you desire to have from it. And if you think that you are made for your country and not the country for you, If you are looking to join a passion rather then a profession and if you think that your mother land is above all for you. Then this is the carrier for you other wise you can look for something more lucrative to live a comfortable and cozy life with your family and friends.
By knowing these facts one may think
that there will not be any taker of this passion turned profession. But it is
not so. Country is full of young one’s who are ready to die for their country.
Like in any other profession competition to join Indian Army too is really cut
throat. Those who are mad to wear olive green know that they are the one’s who
are never going to loose in life. They know if they put bullet in the enemies
chest they will be applauded and if the took enemies bullets they will again be
applauded for their courage and decorated. They know what they are going to do
can not be done by others. They know that they are the only one’s that are not
known as Hindu, Sikhs, Muslims etc. They are known as The Indian Army.
And there is no dearth of such young ones.
That is the reason, The Indian Army is one of the few volunteer Armies unlike
many other so called super powers that have to maintain a compulsory army
services. Passion among the young one made the competition all the more high.
It is also a truth that Indian Army is running short of nearly 11,000 officers
but this does not show in any case that the next generation lost the charm for
the services. Rather it highlights the fact that Indian Army never compromises
on the quality, it may be short of quantity for some time for one reason or
another but quality is never compromised.
So one has to be the best to join. And to be the best one is required to be
full of confidence, courage, determination and grit to uphold the aspirations
of the entire country. If you have these basic qualities you are most welcome
to the Indian Army training institute where your qualities will be
polished to lead the nation from front.
