So here we present a small talk with Sub-inspector Amrinder Singh.

 

1. What motivated you to join the Indian army?

Amrinder Singh: I was born and brought in army cantonments, therefore the charm of wearing uniform was a childhood dream. That dream turned into career aim when I joined Sainik School Kapurthala. During this, there were few officers whose personality and aura inspired me and I wanted to be like them. Moreover it’s not only the job but a life that’s full of different experiences and opportunities to groom you into an all rounder. The charm of wearing uniform and becoming an officer lured me.

3. You wanted to join the Indian Army, then from where the thought of becoming a Sub-Inspector came to your mind?

Amrinder Singh: Actually after graduating from college I started doing job as an Android Developer in a Private company. I used to give SSBs while working there. But when I applied for leave for the third time while working there, they refused to grant me leave to attend SSB. So I left that job and made up my mind to do govt job as there are no such restrictions there. Therefore I starting preparing for govt jobs and got shortlisted for bank PO, Field officer and Sub-inspector. Then I chose job as a police inspector due to my charm of wearing uniform.

 

4. Giving so many attempts, was it hard and painful? 

Amrinder Singh: It was quite hard and painful after all many friends stopped believing in me that I could get through, only the 2-3 supported me till end. It is hard to gather courage after every failure attempt and prepare to rise again and move towards your goal. Never say die spirit sustained me through this journey.

 

5. What do you think worked in your 19th attempt?

Amrinder Singh: The following aspects I think worked in my 19th attempt

  • Amrinder Singh: The following aspects I think worked in my 19th attempt
  • The collective and balanced performance in all three testing techniques.
  • Through self Introspection and learning from previous attempts.
  • There was a gap of around one half year between my last conference as I was screened out last time. In that gap I improved my personality and behavior and tried to inculcate OLQs.
  • Spontaneous responses to psychological tests even the self description (for the first time I wrote SD what
  • came to my mind not cramming the previously prepared).
  • Accepting my weaknesses in the interview.Sub Inspector Amrinder Singh

 

6. What was your preparation for 19th attempt?

Amrinder Singh: There was no special preparation for 19th attempt but the improvement and introspection I did on daily basis for last 2 years bore the fruit, It was a collective preparation for long time. In my opinion, KNOWING THYSELF and accordingly improving is the basic preparation.7. Any advice for defense aspirants?

 

7. Any advice for defense aspirants? 

Amrinder Singh: Soldier is who makes a way facing fearful odds. So my advice is never ever give up. Put sincere efforts in preparation.  Self-Introspection and accepting your mistakes helps most in SSB

 

8. We wish you more success ahead.

Amrinder Singh: Thank you.

13 Qualities And Traits Which Are Checked In SSB Interview

13 Qualities SSB Interview

No selection process can ensure a substantial, guaranteed end-product. The period of examination will invariably be short and it will sometimes provide only a snapshot of the candidate’s potential. However, past history, and the candidate’s record of development, will also be a very useful initial guide. Aptitude testing can give notice of the candidate’s suitability for an aptitude-dependant branch and then further assessment, by interview and additional exercises, will help to ascertain the candidate’s overall profile. At interview, close examination should reveal the following qualities and traits:

SSB Interview Preparation Material [ 100% Recommended]

a. Appearance and Bearing. The candidate’s appearance, bearing, grooming, distinguishing features and general presentation should be readily apparent within the first impressions formed at interview.

b. Manner and Impact. The candidate’s conduct throughout the interview, along with his courtesy, tact, confidence, force of personality, presence, poise, polish, humour and alertness will add to the overall impact.

c. Speech and Powers of Expression. Dialogue with the candidate will elicit his ability to communicate. The quality of grammar, vocabulary, diction, general fluency, logic, projection and animation will all indicate the overall effectiveness of expression.

d. Activities and Interests. The well-rounded candidate should have had a varied, interesting and fulfilling lifestyle. Whilst it is important to bear in mind the individual’s background (that is, general opportunities and financial limitations) the range and extent of spare-time activities are important to indicate signs of commitment, depth of involvement, achievement, level of responsibility, spirit of adventure, determination, initiative, enterprise and self-reliance within an overall balance of interests and pursuits.

e. Academic Level and Potential. Whilst minimum levels of academic qualifications will be set, the manner and east of obtaining qualifications, together with the level of commitment, diligence and attitude towards study will all give indications of the individual’s further academic potential.

f. Breadth and Depth of Outlook. The candidate’s general awareness of military matters and current affairs should confirm a maturity of outlook and a general ability to reason, giving also some indications of general intellect.

g. Motivation. The candidate’s determination towards his military goals should be ascertained. Sometimes the motivation will have previous substantiation. It will be important to ascertain that the candidate is clear about, and would relish, the commitment and dedication demanded of the officer corps.

These qualities are said to be carrying equal weight age in selection and are spelt out to be equal in Indian context. This is not true. With experience in Armed Forces, it is a well known fact that courage, co-operation and Sense of Responsibility coupled with Reasoning Ability and Social Adjustment are the most important factors in a war, hence, must carry more weight age than the other qualities. War diaries of units are testimony to these issues.

Now the question that arises here is, if we all have an officer in ourselves, then why don’t we get recommended?

Well, SSB panel wants a guy who knows about himself. Your likes – dislikes, interests and habits, your qualities and your shortcomings, etc. Everybody has OLQs but a person who knows about himself can bloom his qualities and make it suitable for armed forces. Every repeater had heard a word “introspect” from officers on the day of conference. It is not just a farewell speech, rather every repeater need to go deep into himself and check his qualities, introspect and eradicate the mistake. Your shortcomings are not the cause of your rejections, your incomplete analysis of yourself is the main cause.

Dissolve some points in your mind before appearing in SSB

  • SSB is not a competition. It is a way of accessing you. Competition leads to anger, anxiety and recklessness.
  • There is nothing write nothing wrong, assessors judge who is fit for the job.
  • Give your best in every task, but don’t try to defeat anybody.
  • Avoid blaming SSB crew.

Is Indian Air Force Going Through Tough Times?

0
Indian Air Force

With the ascent of military driven and forces backed economies, every nation is giving its best to empower its armed forces. Indian, being the owner of 3rd largest army, has gathered much fame, but it seems that IAF is going through tough times. All SSB aspirants need to be aware of the matter and all related aspects.

 

Current Status

Recently IAF’s Air Marshal BS Dhanoa, Vice Chief of Air Staff disclosed that Indian Air Force is going through a shortage of squadrons. The required/ recommended squadrons for IAF is 42, while the current count is 33 squadrons. The shortage is a signal for the Defence Ministry to gear up and provide sufficient requirements to the air force. The number of jets is going down with the drop in the number of Mig aircraft in IAF.

Why Is This A Matter Of Concern?

Pakistan has come up with the induction of JF-17 jets made by the collaboration of Pakistan and China. Along with this, Pakistan has also grabbed the deal of F-16 jets of U.S… Currently the deal is going through ups and downs, due to the India’s protest over the deal. Another big rival, China, is about to receive first batch of Su-35 from close ally Russia. India’s close neighbours are preparing and arming their Air Force, when India is facing aircraft deficiency.

What India Is Doing As Counter Measure?

Well, India has planned to recover its deficient squadrons by inducting indigenously manufactured aircraft – Tejas (Light Combat Aircraft). The aircraft was appreciated a lot in Bahrain Air Show. Another ace to be inducted is Light Combat Helicopter (LCH) is expected to be inducted in upcoming years. LCH will fire rockets and LCA is capable of performing “swing roll” and firing BVR missile and guided bombs simultaneously. On the other hand, India is very close to its long pending Dassault’s Rafale deal. After its induction, India will get some relief from squadron deficiency.

Recent Enhancement

Recently Indian government has given green signal to the purchase of Air Gun. The requirement of 61 flights of Air defence guns has been accepted by Defence Acquisition Council. Each flight will have 4 guns. The guns will be procured under “Buy and Make” procedure. According to the sources, the system has got radars and can shoot down drones and low flying objects. The guns will be made in India in collaboration with the foreign collaboration.

Not only this, Defence Acquisition Council has cleared the purchase of sensors and weapon packages for the new stealth frigate P-17A.

CONCLUSION – Indian air force has shown its performance in many wars. India is completely dependent over its armed forces for securing its entire border connected with Pakistan and China. The ongoing deficiency has made a cavity in defence and security field. Indian air force is advancing its tentacles in all parts and terrains. Last year, a trial landing of aircraft over the Yamuna express highway and current step of reactivating two landing ground in Arunachal Pradesh. The advancement and covering the border area is necessary for the IAF to manage the ongoing weaknesses of Indian air forces. The deficiency is also expected to be fulfilled in short time as the Defence Ministry is stressing over induction of Tejas. Well, the current scenario specifies the increase in defence budget to maintain the defence and security facilities.

I Got Recommended For Indian Army In 19th Attempt

0

Hello aspirants, my name is Amrinder Singh and I got recommended in 19th attempt for TGC-122 from 19 SSB Allahabad on 30th Oct 2015. Earlier I was 12 times CO and 6 times SO. My journey to become an army officer started 7 years ago when I first appeared before SSB for NDA entry. I have tread a long and arduous road to achieve my aim finally. That time I was asked a question “Do you have it in you?” and now I can proudly say “Yes! I have it in me”.  Over these years of struggle I faced failures 18 times but that didn’t FAIL me because I never gave up. “Never Give UP” these were very powerful words for me and these words gave me the courage to rise again after falling. Many of my friends and family members thought now I will not make it to Army and I should stop trying and do my job as a Police Sub Inspector. They thought that I got settled in life, but there was a voice in my heart that said “It is not what you are made for “. I wanted to be an army officer, it was not just a govt. job for me but an honorable and a less ordinary life that I ever wanted to live. You will also come across this after few failures and people will start disbelieving in you. That is the testing time of your grit, you have to believe in yourself no matter what.

Buddies I will not waste your time with how I reached and what pictures and words I faced. Rather will tell you what I learned from all these attempts. Many people ask what are they looking for, the simple answer to this is 15 OLQs. An aspirant must know and understands all OLQs by heart.  Psychologist, GTO and IO all three are looking for these qualities by different techniques.

Introspection plays a vital role in SSB preparation. It means knowing yourself. Knowing yourself doesn’t only mean your strengths but also your weaknesses. It takes a lot of moral courage to know your weaknesses and accepting them. Introspection lets you know what you like, what you don’t what kind of persons you get bonded easily. Introspection is backbone of preparation for Psyche tests and Interview. Do it thoroughly by seeking inwards.

Logical approach: You have to develop logic in every aspect of your life. If you are doing something you must know why you are doing. You are required to have reasons even for your choices. In short you must have reason for anything that is related to you.

PPDT

In PPDT, the foremost task is to observe the picture carefully (there is a difference between observe and look), observe the surroundings, people, notice things. That helps in perception and writing the story. Make the story realistic, simple and related to you if possible. Then narration is the first impression in front of assessors, make most of it. Narrate the story crisp, loud and clear. In GD it’s about behavior in group and expression.  Grab the opportunity to give your point, but don’t interrupt anyone. In my opinion one should speak 2-3 times at max and helps group towards making common story.

Psychological tests

Psychological tests don’t require coming with preconceived ideas but that doesn’t mean one shouldn’t practice. Practice writing stories, words, SRTs under time constraints to get one familiar to test conditions and time factor. During testing, you have to be with fresh mind and respond to the stimulus what comes in mind. In Psyche tests remember the quality matters not the quantity.

TAT is the base of psyche tests. The stories should be reactionary not visionary. They can be derived from daily life, your past experiences and your visualization. In stories you don’t have to write qualities of hero directly like he was cooperative, hard working etc. The qualities should be shown by hero’s feelings and actions.

WAT: Each word is an opportunity to show your quality. Thinking much won’t help you have to write response immediately. Practice WATs with MS PowerPoint.

SRTs: I wrote responses using minimum words but specifying all what to be done. Don’t think much as there is no right or wrong in this. Just think for a moment what you will do if are in that situation in real life and write it down.

Self description: It’s all introspection as I mentioned earlier also. The more you introspect the better you will be able to perform in this test. This is the first time I didn’t memorize my SD and wrote what came into my mind. Though I wasn’t able to complete it but still made it through this time.

INTERVIEW

Interview is mostly about self awareness, reasoning ability and confidence. IO asks questions based on PIQ, technical and GK. The latter two doesn’t matter much but you should know thoroughly about yourself, your relationships with close friend’s n family, your job profile. Preparation for interview can be done by framing questions based on every word you have written in PIQ. Then be prepared to the counter questions which IO will be asking from your answers. One can practice Interview by giving it to your friend.Recommended For Indian Army In 19th Attempt TGC 122

GTO

Group tasks are mostly about team work. It’s not a competition among group members. One has to help the group move forward. One shouldn’t dominate the group and speak every other time, but to come with a idea when the situation so warrants.

This time I was grouped among freshers so I cautiously made it a point to never let them feel I am a seasoned repeater. In GD I spoke only 3-4 times and every time I spoke for around 1 min giving my views completely. I listened receptively to other’s points. In Ground tasks, your idea to go across the structure and your cooperation with group matters whether you are giving from behind or at forward.

Results

Our hearts were pounding and there was a hope of getting through. Duty Officer before announcing results said result is quite good. When he announced my chest no 8, I didn’t believe my ears at first, it happens when your hope is crushed for 18 times. I was at cloud 9; so long I waited for this moment in my life. It was the happiest day in my life.

Meet Lt. Parikshit Bawa, Who Won Sword Of Honour In OTA Passing Out Parade 2016

0

On 12th, March 2016 passing out parade was counted at officers training academy, Chennai. With this Indian army got few more young men and women officers for the motherland. This is the story of Lt. Parikshit Bawa who won sword of honour at OTA, Chennai, which means he was the best cadet in his whole batch.

We had a small conversation with Lt. Parikshit Bawa who is sharing his experience of joining OTA, Chennai, winning sword of honour and becoming an army officer. Hope this will help our future officers and aspirants.

SSBCrack: How did your journey to join Indian army began?

Lt. Parikshit Bawa: I’m a 4th generation officer and a 3rd generation into my unit. My grandfather and father both served in the Armoured Corps. Even so I did my college from Delhi University first and saw the corporate life. After spending three years in college, the life ahead didn’t seem to carry any adventure. I decided to write my CDS exam, even though I wasn’t too sure on joining. But a few months before the result I decided the army was best suited for me.
I cleared my SSB in my first attempt. The secret is just remain yourself and enjoy it. The more you think about it, the more nervous you get and tend to make mistakes.
I would choose to join the forces any day of the year.

SSBCrack: How was your Academy (OTA) life?

Lt. Parikshit Bawa:  OTA is a wonderful training academy. Training for me started the way I expected it. Introduction to all the traditions of the academy followed by learning the hard way. The fact that there are only two terms gives the juniors only one term to learn and then teach the next batch. And the senior term ensures that the juniors live upto the standards and ethos of the Academy once they pass out.
I love the Academy and I feel each officer from the OTA is worthy of doing great in his or her career.

SSBCrack: Many aspirants want to know the secret of winning sword of honour, tell us what all a cadet has to go through to earn it? 

Lt. Parikshit Bawa: First and foremost a Cadet should remember to learn at the academy. A lot of cadets tend to go with the flow of the academy and do only what is required. You have to go beyond that. You have to give your extra bit each and every day. There isn’t a secret formula. It is basic things like smiling all the time, helping out fellow cadets even though you don’t have time, following the rules even when no one is looking, not taking shortcuts, putting in all your effort into what you are doing, participating in classes. These small things on a daily basis tend to make you a very confident person and that is the basis.
Winning the Sword of Honour is secondary to becoming a good officer. Once you train well and become confident, it will come on its own.

SSBCrack: How does it feel to carry the sword of honor?

Lt. Parikshit Bawa: It feels great to carry the Sword. There is definitely a level one needs to maintain after achieving this feat and I’m sure my instructors from Academy have groomed me well enough to do so.
What feels better is to see my parents extremely proud of me. Their happiness makes the win complete.

SSBCrack: One thing you will miss the most after leaving Officers Training Academy? 

Lt. Parikshit Bawa:  My coursemates! I will miss them the most. None of us wanted leave Academy. The bonding one makes during training is phenomenal.

SSBCrack: Any advice for future officers and aspirants? 

Lt. Parikshit Bawa:  I would advice everyone to always remain happy. Even during the worst day, if you can manage a smile nothing will go wrong. Also, always remain lively and on your toes. Be visible. Make friends with everyone. Spend quality time with your coursemates. Respect your seniors and instructors and most importantly, LEARN every little thing.

Here are some pictures of Lt. Parikshit Bawa at Officers Training Academy, Chennai

An Indian Army Soldier Who Deserved Param Vir Chakra?

0
Naik Digendra Kumar

So recently we have posted a picture of Naik Digendra Kumar, also know as COBRA, he was an Indian army commando and came into picture for his superhero act during Kargil war.

We posted a picture of him on our Facebook page and in three days it was viewed by more than 1 Million people on Facebook, shared 10,000+ times. The picture told his brave act during Kargil war and the story sounds like an action movie script but it happened in reality.

Naik Digendra Kumar Kargil

BUT, this isn’t the only story about him you will hear today, as per his wiki page, he has done something else which is not only unbelievable but also made us wonder “Why this Indian army soldier never got Param Vir Chakra”. We know our soldiers never ask for medals and they do their selfless duty, but the curosity will always remain there.

Check these facts below and put your thoughts.

Naik Digendra Kumar In Operation Pawan

Operation Pawan was the code name assigned to operations by the Indian Peace Keeping Force to take control of Jaffna from the LTTE in late 1987, enforcing the disarmament of the LTTE as a part of the Indo-Sri Lankan Accord. After fighting that lasted for about three weeks, the IPKF took control of the Jaffna Peninsula from the LTTE, something that the Sri Lankan army had attempted and failed to achieve for several years. Supported by Indian army tanks, helicopter gunships, and heavy artillery, the IPKF routed the LTTE, although they lost 214 soldiers in the process.

Kumar and his group were assigned to patrol dominant areas in Tamil. Five Tamil militants fired and killed five soldiers from Kumar’s squad. In return, Kumar and the remaining soldiers of his squad followed the militants into the house of an MLA. However, the MLA opposed the action, and in the ensuing firefight the MLA, along with the five Tamil militants, was killed. This caused some controversy, and Kumar was penalised and remanded.

Meanwhile, 36 soldiers of the 10th Parachute Regiment were captured and held by the LTTE. Lt. Gen. A.S. Kalkat assigned the task of freeing them to Kumar. Kumar took with him 50 kg ammunition and some biscuits and sailed up the river. Kumar saved the soldiers (who had been held in the forest for 72 hours), destroyed an important ammunition depot, and killed 39 militants.

Role in the Kargil war

Major Vivek Gupta, of the 2nd Battalion of the Rajputana Rifles and his company were given the task of Digendra Kumarrecapturing Point 4590 on Tololing Hill in the Dras sector. The objective was to capture the enemy post, located at high altitude (15,000 feet).

Kumar commanded the Light Machine Gun Group during his company’s assault. Besides Kumar, the commando team included Major Vivek Gupta, Subedar Bhanwar Lal Bhakar, Subedar Surendra Singh Rathor, Lance Naik Jasvir Singh, Naik Surendra, Naik Chaman Singh Tewatia, Lans Naik Bachchan Singh, CMH Jashvir Singh, and Havaldar Sultan Singh Narwar.

The Pakistani army had made 11 bunkers on the Tololing hilltop. Kumar was to target the first and the last bunkers. The other commandos were to target the remaining 9 bunkers.

On 13 June 1999, while nearing its objective, the Assault Group came under enemy fire and took casualties. Subedar Bhanwar Lal Bhakar, Lance Naik Jasvir Singh, Naik Surendra, and Naik Chaman Singh were all killed. Major Vivek Gupta himself was killed by a bullet wound to the head.[1] Although Kumar was hit by a bullet in his left arm, he kept firing on the enemy with his light machine gun. His fire facilitated his men’s advancement, allowing them to physically assault the enemy position and clear the area after a hand-to-hand fight. He was responsible to killed 48 Pakistani soldiers single handedly and received total 18 bullets on his body armour.
