Summary
- 110 NCC cadets from three cities sailed 405 km.
- Cadets trained in maritime safety, AI, and legal awareness.
- Lake conservation street plays and mural art were featured.
A significant 10-day inter-unit sailing expedition recently concluded at Fateh Sagar Lake, bringing together 110 National Cadet Corps (NCC) cadets. Participants hailed from Udaipur, Jaipur, and Ajmer, collectively navigating 405 km during the event. Organized by the 1 Rajasthan Naval Unit NCC, the expedition utilized 27-foot Drop Keel Whalers and Enterprise-class sailing dinghies.
This camp extended beyond traditional seamanship training. Cadets received vital maritime safety instruction, including practical, live drills for recovering capsized boats in open water. Innovative learning was integrated through a 10-hour capsule course on artificial intelligence, alongside a legal awareness session covering the POSH and POCSO Acts.
Further enriching the experience, the State Disaster Response Force provided training in critical emergency responses, including CPR, trauma first aid, and snakebite management. Cadets also actively participated in community engagement activities such as lake conservation street plays, mural art creation, semaphore signalling, and various sports competitions, fostering discipline and an adventurous spirit.
