The Amogh Division, operating under the Sapta Shakti Command, has successfully concluded an innovative Services Selection Board (SSB) preparation capsule aimed at grooming the next generation of military leaders. The program provided an immersive and structured experience for students from Army Public School (APS) Jaipur and APS Sriganganagar, helping them understand the rigors of the actual SSB process – a crucial gateway to joining the National Defence Academy (NDA) and Indian Military Academy (IMA).
The capsule replicated a real-time 5-day SSB selection environment and focused on instilling discipline, determination, and confidence among the participants. Each student received personalized feedback and guidance from experienced assessors, helping them identify and enhance their leadership potential. The program incorporated interactive group tasks, psychological assessments, and communication exercises, all conducted in an environment mirroring the actual SSB testing framework.
Lt Gen Manjinder Singh, Army Commander of the Sapta Shakti Command, recently reviewed the operational readiness of the Amogh Division. During his visit to forward areas, including interactions with Border Security Force (BSF) personnel in Sriganganagar, he emphasized the importance of such initiatives in strengthening inter-agency coordination and leadership development.
Both participating institutions, particularly APS Sriganganagar, which has been affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) since 1996 and delivered its first Class XII batch in 2005, have a consistent record of academic performance. Their partnership with the Army in this initiative reflects a shared vision of preparing students for a future in the armed forces.
The Amogh Division’s initiative has been lauded for its forward-thinking approach to military mentorship and training. By combining practical exposure with professional guidance, the capsule marks a significant step in the Indian Army’s efforts to inspire, train, and prepare capable young leaders for service to the nation.
