16 Things About Indian National Defence University Bill

On 5 Aug, 2016, the Draft Indian National University Bill, 2015 went online on MyGov.in portal and MoD website for six weeks for public consultations. This made the concept of Indian National Defence University (INDU) to be a reality soon. The Bill proposes to establish a world class fully autonomous institution of National Importance under Ministry of Defence.

Here are a few things that you need to know about the bill that proposes a new military academy of India, INDU:

  1. The idea of a National Defence University was first conceived in 1967. It was later recommended by Kargil Review Committee and Group of Ministers in 2000.
  2. Land for setting up of the Defence University was acquired at Binola in Gurgaon in September 2012. Part infrastructure development has commenced on the acquired land in December 2015.

These four colleges will go by the name – School of National Security Studies, School of Defence Technology, School of Defence Management and Centre for Distance and Open Learning (with regional centres of distance learning) and will be set up at the University’s main campus.
  6. Open and Distance Learning Programmes for Service personnel deployed in far flung area has also been considered.
  7. As is the case in existing Defence Universities across the world, Indian National Defence University is proposed to be governed by its own norms and will inculcate and promote coordination and interaction between the Armed Forces and other Government Agencies including friendly foreign countries.
  8. While the Defence Minister will be the proposed university’s Chancellor, the Chairman of Chiefs of Staff Committee will be the pro-chancellor and the President will act as a Visitor to the University.
  9. The whole project will be implemented in three phases spread over a period of 10 years and the total estimated cost of the project stands at Rs 2,072 crore.
  10. The INDU will provide for holistic study of defence and strategic security challenges and 66% of students would be from the Armed Forces, whereas 33% of students would be drawn from other government agencies, police and civilian.
  11. The teaching faculty will comprise of both military personnel and civilians in the ratio of 1:1.
  12. INDU will undertake long term defence and strategic studies and create synergy between the academic community and government functionaries. It would integrate Academic community, Armed Forces, Para Military Forces, Intelligence Agencies & Bureaucracy in Strategic Policy Making and Related issues.
  13. The University is being planned on the lines of the IITs and the IIMs and the existing Defence Institutions like National Defence College (NDC) New Delhi, Defence Services Staff College (DSSC) Wellington, College of Defence Management (CDM) Secunderabad and National Defence Academy (NDA) Khadakwasla would be affiliated to INDU.
  14. The Bill proposes to bring these four institutions under the admit of Indian National Defence University, though these institutions’ autonomy (for the award of degrees and diplomas) and powers will remain same, it adds.
  15. INDU will inculcate and promote coordination and interaction not just between the three Armed Services, but also between other agencies of the Government, the Civil Bureaucracy, Para Military Forces, Cental Armed Police Forces, Intelligence Servies, Diplomats, Academicians, Strategic Planners, University Students and officers from Friendly Foreign Countries.
  16. The comments and suggestions from the public on the draft Bill will be collated and reviewed at the Ministry of Defence following which the process for seeking approval of the Cabinet will be initiated and the Bill will be tabled in the Parliament for enactment.

These Little Tales of Young Vikram Batra Will Make You Emotional As Well As Proud

Viram Batra

On July 7, 1999, in the early hours, Kargil war hero Vikram Batra was commanding a mission to rescue an injured officer during an enemy counter-attack. He was killed in action while clearing enemy positions making the supreme sacrifice for the country. This Kargil Diwas, we remember the memories of a Young Vikram Batra through the words of his teachers and parents.

Vikram Batra is remembered for his bravery and sacrifice by every Indian. His family, friends and teachers have different tales of his student days which he spent in Chandigarh to share as reported by Tribune India.

Ranging from his daily life to NCC days, here it goes:

“I scolded him in 1995 when he did not return the NCC uniform which is mandatory for every cadet after finishing the studies to get the no dues certificate for getting his degree,” former NCC in-charge of DAV College Prof RP Singh recalled this incident when he was asked about Vikram who was a BSc student of the college.

The otherwise calm and quiet Vikram told the professor: “I had gone to my native place in Himachal Pradesh, which is why I could not return the uniform on time.” The professor said he was frank and truthful. In the first year of college, Vikram was in the NCC Air Wing, but for the next two years, he remained a cadet of the Army Wing, said Professor Singh.

Vikram, who was fond of adventure, was the president of the youth service club of the college. He organised a Kasauli trekking trip for the club members, recalled his sports lecturer Ravinder Chaudhary. In 1994, Vikram participated in the Republic Day parade in New Delhi.

Vikram, who is remembered in the Army for the war slogan ‘Yeh Dil Maange More’, is missed by his father for his words “Bas do minute papa” (two minutes dad).

Sharing memories, Vikram’s father GL Batra said during his first visit to Hostel No. 1 of Panjab University, where he took admission in MA English for preparing for his Combined Defence Services exam, Vikram asked me: “Papa aap kya khaoge” (Dad, what will you have). To which, he said: “No mess or canteen is open in the university. Don’t bother yourself.” Vikram promptly responded: “Arre bas do minute” and he came back with a bowl of noodles and on top of it was an omelette for his father.Viram Batra

“This dish has become part of our family meal and whenever I miss him, I ask my wife to prepare it for me,” GL Batra said.

He further said Vikram was “yaro ka yaar” (true friend). His friendly nature endeared him to mess staff which used to borrow his bike and in return bestowed their bounties by making everything available to him on demand in the hostel. Vikram, who was honoured with the Param Vir Chakra and Maha Vir Chakra, during his university days, did a part-time job as the branch manager of a travelling agency in Chandigarh. “I do not want to be a burden on you, dad,” Vikram told his father.

These little tales of young Vikram fills every reader with emotion and pride at the same time. We are so honoured that India got such a hero who will be remembered by the nation.
