NCC Commanders Visit to College
A college supervision program was conducted today at Sri Ramakrishna Degree College, Nandyal. The event was graced by the presence of distinguished guests including Colonel Alok Tirupati, Colonel Joby Philips, College Chairman Prof. G. Ramakrishna Reddy, College Director Mr. G. Hemanth Reddy, NCC Officer Mr. Kamal Khan, NCC Vice Commander Ms. Lalitha Saraswathi, and Ms. Lakshmidurga. NCC cadets — both boys and girls — actively participated in the program.
The event began with a prayer, followed by a session where students shared their experiences related to NCC training and college life.
Speaking on the occasion, Colonel Alok Tirupati emphasized the vital role of youth, calling them the backbone of the nation. He posed thought-provoking questions such as, “What does NCC offer you? What are you learning from it?” He highlighted the significance of the ‘Viksit Bharat 2047’ vision and encouraged students to aspire not just to work under someone but to become job creators. He urged them to realize their goals with determination and perseverance.
Colonel Tirupati also spoke about entrepreneurship and leadership, stating that leaders must walk alongside their teams rather than simply delegate. He referenced Sudha Murthy, the first female engineer at Infosys, as an inspiration to all young women aiming to become self-reliant. He motivated students to make full use of their skills and knowledge, especially those pursuing courses like BCA, to achieve personal and national progress. He concluded by stressing the importance of spreading awareness gained through NCC for the betterment of society and the nation.
Colonel Joby Philips spoke next, sharing insights about candidates from Bihar, Jharkhand, Guntur, Tirupati, Vijayawada, and Kakinada who are attending national-level UBSC camps. He emphasized that such camps are valuable opportunities to score higher marks and that C and D certificates obtained through NCC are beneficial in future exams. He encouraged students to prove their abilities in comparison to visiting cadets, and to ensure that all guests feel welcomed and comfortable.
He also stressed the importance of learning languages other than Telugu, given that cadets from across the country would be attending. He introduced the EXPA program, where former NCC cadets from Bangalore and Hyderabad would be conducting theoretical and practical classes, guiding students on how to lead their lives, differentiate between right and wrong, and set future goals. He emphasized that one’s behavior reflects one’s character.
College Director Mr. G. Hemanth Reddy praised the dedication of the NCC cadets, noting that while most students spend their holidays leisurely, NCC cadets choose to be in camps, learning important life skills. He highlighted that these camps teach students how to interact with new people, adapt to different environments, and work as a team. He encouraged the students to showcase the values and culture of their college, and to take care of visiting cadets from other institutions, ensuring they have a positive experience.
Mr. Reddy also stressed that this is a national-level program, and it is a privilege for students to be selected. The participating cadets have worked hard and are steadily moving toward their dreams.
As a token of appreciation, the college felicitated Colonel Alok Tirupati and Colonel Joby Philips with honors.
The program concluded with the singing of the National Anthem.
