indian army ssb interview

indian army ssb interviewTo every defence lover out there this is the story of a boy who had a dream completely different from what his parents and society was seeing for him. A long post(read with patience) but will definitely boost those who had no defence background………..Ok then lets start. INTRODUCTION AND PRE COLLEGE LIFE : My name is Taranjit Singh. I am from a village background of state Punjab. My father is a storekeeper in general reserved forces(GREF). My journey had every up and down there can be. After completing my 12th I was confused about my carrier since  my father had never got the chance to complete his studies so he wants me to go for higher studies hence I  gave AIEEE and cleared but my score and rank was not good therefore I didn’t get into NITs in two consecutive counselling so without wasting any more time I applied for PTU(Punjab technical university ) counselling and got admission to a private engineering college. During my college 1st year I was a shy person and a complete introvert and to overcome that I participated in almost each and every event of college be it be plays, sports, cultural activities and so on. moreover, I joined the National Service Scheme and went for many social and environmental camps which helped me to acquire an all rounder personality. Then comes the final year, projects were submitted and companies came for campus placements most of them were for CSE branch and me being from ECE branch had no knowledge of DBMS and HTML kind of things, therefore, I got selected in none. After that I went for GATE exam coaching and failed to qualify, I scored 19 marks which were not even close to ECE cutoff. This was the time when I started appearing for SSBs.

SSB JOURNEYS AND JOB: My first attempt was for TGC-124(2016) at Bhopal and got screened out reason being my nonseriousness and zero preparation for the ssb. Thereafter I kept on preparing for various government exams and kept on failing in all. However, I never gave CDS exam because I was too afraid of general knowledge and  English. Hence I got overage for CDS and I was left with only AFCAT, TGC and SSC(tech). Meanwhile, for money, I started a job at a banking institute IBT pvt. Ltd Jalandhar as an executive which were consuming most of my day time. There at IBT I started giving serious thoughts about my carrier as I can not keep working as an executive after doing engineering so I fully and finally decided to give my time for SSBs. I prepared and wrote AFCAT and cleared but unfortunately got screened out. That was the time when I decided to go for coaching and learn what SSB demands from a candidate. I joined an institute in Chandigarh and after completing coaching I immediately went for AFCAT AFSB at Mysuru, there I got screened in. As my first screening, I feel like I was recommended and went into tears, to my luck I got conferenced out. This was my biggest setback till date as I got overage for the mighty Airforce. I went back home completely lost in my mind thinking about my every possible mistake and I found thousands of error in me.

Thereafter with some more prepration, I went for SSC tech-51 and again got conference out. Till that day I had 4 screenouts and 2 conference outs. However on the conference out day of SSC tech-51 I was praying that “hey god please give me SSB Allahabad as my next TGC centre, I want to convert my rejections to selection at the rejection board” and gentlemen to my surprise I got Allahabad as centre. That very day I promised my self that I will give my 100% to preparation. As soon as I reached home I quit my job and started preparing with my most trustworthy friends SSBCRACK(website and Instagram account) and Sukhbir Singh my another defence aspirant friend. These two were my preparation buddies I think I am lucky to have. I did my SWOT analysis and purchased TAT and WAT series from SSBCRACK. Furthermore, I joined spoken English classes as I knew that I can speak in English but not for long durations. I did one TAT set each day and discussed my stories among friends also at the spoken classes I requested my trainer to sit at the end of the classroom so that I can speak loudly and my voice should have fewer stuckups. Moreover, I did group discussions and topic speaking every day. This was how I practised.

SSB REPORTING: Then comes the first day of my reporting at SSB Allahabad. At least 390+ candidates reported and the whole railway station was flooded with aspirants. They were coming from every direction. On reaching the board we did our documentation and went for OIR testing. Thereafter PP & DT happened. Since I was very nervous about seeing so many candidates I did not talk to anyone and kept practising narration in my mind soon we were sent inside before the mini board for discussion, and individual narration started and surprisingly we all were given 20-30 seconds for each narration, as soon as the assessor understood the idea he said next. Then GD started and like everytime group was divided into two halves. I end up speaking twice in GD. Then we were sent outside to wait for results. It was around 6:30 pm when the results came and I was screened in with 53 others. Then we filled PIQ forms and were sent to our respective rooms.

PSYCHOLOGY DAY: The next day it was psychology day. Tests started I wrote flawlessly in  my TATs then WAT and SRT and the final series of self-description. Gentlemen here the trick to write good stories is to increase your action part and write your natural responses. Please never ever write someone else’s response, the selection procedure is 100% foolproof , you just can’t cheat them. One way or the other they will catch you.

 Day 1 GTO : Here the more you know about your roommates the better your group will perform in GTO tasks. First, there were two GDs , both were on moderate topics and each and every member got the chance to speak at least once( here your quality of ideas matter the most). Moving on to group planning be an instant thinker in the group (an example situation not real one for confidential reasons): there was a problem of fire in the crop field and solutions were given as firefighting truck, pouring buckets of sand and so on, however, my solution for this is using tubewell and plastic irrigation pipes using them will be of much help till the time fire services will arrive. This way GPE ended, then the PGTs and lecturette. Here choose the topic you are most confident on.

 Day 2 GTO: Next day there were group obstacles and individual obstacles. In IO I completed all in 2:30mins and repeated two more. Thereafter was command task, my command task was of a moderate level and I completed it successfully with just one mistake. After that, I was called for Interview.

This was like a nightmare to me as I was completely exhausted with IO and command task and was covered in sweat. My mouth was sticking , since one more interview was going at the time so I rushed to the lines took a quick bath and drank 2 glasses of water, put on my best pair of formals and ran to the interview room. My interview went for around an hour and questions were asked from all spheres of my life. Half hour on PIQ and half for GK (with one rapid fire including whole PIQ)

Day 3 GTO: Next day it was HGT and FGT and GTOs were over.

CONFERENCE DAY: My chest no was displayed and I waited for around 10 min before entering the conference room. Inside I was asked some basic questions about my stay and suggestions for the center. This however gave me a low feeling about 50-50 chance for my recommendation. Hence I went outside and kept quite as others were saying you are selected, even some were saying you are a borderline case . To all this I replied that result will tell and again went into my quiet. Here I just kept on saying one thing in my mind “ If not me then who”.

Then results came and my chest no was called at first and in total six candidates were recommended for TGC-128. On hearing my chest no my mind froze and it was complete blank inside. Emotions slowly started affecting me I gave the news to my father, filled with joy he went 9 km on foot to his nearest GURUDWARA sahib to thank the mighty WAHEGURU for their blesssings.

MY SUGGESTIONS TO ASPIRANTS

  1. Be real and original
  2. Only your personality matters
  3. Don’t copy paste others
  4. Officer like behaviour is more important then OLQs
  5. Prepare with the best like SSBCRACK

5 Reasons Defence Aspirants Must Watch Uri: The Surgical Strike Movie

By
Pankaj Negi

defence aspirant surgical strike movie

defence aspirant surgical strike movieIf you ask an Indian defence aspirant about the movies they like, there will always be a Bollywood movie named Lakshya in which the main character was performed by Hrithik Roshan, Lakshya was released in 2004 and it motivated many to join the armed forces. Since then there are many movies produced which are themed on armed forces and a couple of them did perform well in terms of acting and storyline BUT there was no match for Lakshya in terms of making an emotional connection with the defence aspirants. URI the surgical strike movie is something which might fill this long long gap of finding something as good as the Lakshya in terms of motivation. URI the surgical strike has a couple of scenes which are so intense that they send shivers up and down the spine. There are scenes to which every defence aspirants and lover will get emotionally connected. The shots are captured beautifully and the josh was really very high. Let’s see why every defence aspirants must watch this movie right now.

  1. Uri: The Surgical Strike movie was released on 11 Jan 2019: The story is based on the surgical strike conducted by Indian armed forces after the roguish terrorist attacks at Uri Army Base camp in Kashmir. It was the most successful covert operation till date conducted by the special forces commando behind the enemy lines. The main character Major Vihan Shergil who is a PARA SF commando was performed by Vicky Kaushal beautifully.
  2. There are a couple of scenes like the attack on URI based camp which will make you visualise how evil and deadly was the attack in which terrorists lobbed 17 grenades in three minutes.19 army personnel were martyred during the attack. Around 80–100 soldiers were reported injured. A gun battle ensued lasting six hours, in which all four terrorists were killed.
  3. The movie is based on the real events with the mix of some fiction to make the story go smooth but unlike other movies, all the scenes which are emotionally intense are the real-life events happened in soldiers lives some of which you might have seen in the media as well. The writer-director did not try to stuff in the fabricated emotional content and that is the best part of this movie.
  4. URI the movie will also give you a brief idea about such major operations and how they are conducted, how people who are not in uniform are also the part of such operations and play an important role too. How a soldier has to balance his personal and professional life and more importantly soldiers are just like us with equal emotions, fears and courage.
  5. Movies like URI must be encouraged because this is what we want to see more rather than some crappy repeated drama-love-story. You must go and watch this movie in the theatre, it will be worth your time and money, it will also support the people who have worked in this movie from top to bottom. If you support such movies, it will also encourage the filmmakers to make them more often. This movie is something you should not miss, go watch is nearby and do not encourage piracy, do not waste it by watching through a pirated content.

PS: There is a section of media (bigshots) who have reviewed this movie with 2-3 stars, we are not sure if they do have the genuine movie reviewers or they even understand the military lifestyle. Do not trust these media portals, they are the same portals who praise stone pelters and speak against our soldiers. So it is obvious that these media portals hate anything good related to Indian soldiers.

Jai Hind

Indian Army Cannot Allow Homosexuality – General Bipin Rawat

INDIAN ARMY CANNOT ALLOW HOMOSEXUALITY

As we known homosexual acts and adultery were decriminalised by the Supreme Court recently. General Bipin Rawat today said that homosexuality and adultery will remain offences in the Indian Army. Gen Rawat has clearly mentioned about the army act which they follow and why it is not possible for the army to allow homosexuality and adultery. Some people are unnecessarily creating controversy out of his statements, so let’s see what all he has said in the interview when asked about homosexuality in the Indian Army.

General Rawat said “For LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans) issues, in the Army, these are not acceptable. We will still be dealing with them under various sections of the Army Act”.

“Army will not allow LGBT activities in the force. We have some section in Army acts to deal with this,”

“We have taught our men that how the social media is being used by our adversary to trap us. So don’t get trapped by social media,” General Rawat said. “Let me tell you that a lot of people have been honey trapped.”

RECOMMENDED FOR INDIAN NAVY FROM 12 SSB BANGALORE

RECOMMENDED FOR INDIAN NAVY FROM 12 SSB BANGALORETo achieve any goal the first step is always to dream and I dreamt long back to get recommended and serve in the armed forces of the country. I am Prateek Khandekar and I come from Ambala Cantt, Haryana. I have been following SSBCrack for quite a while and was highly motivated by the recommended candidates who were an epitome of determination. I was conferenced out from NSB Coimbatore, 24 SSB Bangalore and 11 SSB Allahabad. But I finally managed to get recommended from 12 SSB Bangalore in the 4th attempt for SSC (observer) course to join the Indian navy.  And hence I get this opportunity to share my experience and journey with all the aspirants. It is true that we all have OLQs, it’s just that we don’t display them in an explicit manner. We just need to realise that the accessing officers are way too much experience and we can’t make a fool of them. They are looking for normal people who are honest and bold.

5 Days SSB Interview
My psych test went completely fine according to me,  I did 56 SRTs, all TATs and WATs. I gave my responses without giving it a second thought.

The interview was very short and it lasted for less than 25 mins. IO gave many calculation problems and I answered all of them almost instantly.

IO: You are quite fast, I wonder why you were not recommended in the past 3 attempts.
Me: sir I think it was the GTO where I lagged in.
IO: Be careful with the command walk,  it shakes a lot.
(We both chuckled)
IO: What are you doing currently?
Me: Sir, I am preparing for Civil services examination
IO: that’s quite a comfortable job once you are through, why do you want to join armed forces then?
Me: Sir, they don’t get to kill the militants that often ( I smiled thereafter)
IO: so you like swimming.  Which stroke do you prefer?
Me: Sir, I am the fastest in freestyle yet I like butterfly the most.
IO: In which stroke do the hands don’t come off the water?
Me: Breaststroke sir.
IO: I won’t be wasting more time. I am done. Is there anything you want to tell me?
Me: yes sir, while coming to Bangalore,  I wrote a poem for the army personnel. If you permit,  I would like to show it to you.
IO: come show me.
(After reading)
IO: You should get it fair and published. Good luck with the conference.

The GTO went good average. I spoke only once in both the GDs for about 30-45 seconds each. GPE was well planned, gave a fair number of ideas in PGT and HGT. GOR was quite amazing and I enjoyed a lot, I motivated my team till we crossed the finishing line. My lecturette was quite good and I spoke on the topic ” Foreign aid”. I did 10 individual obstacles but the command task was average,  so I didn’t expect a recommendation.

SSB Psychology Tests
The waiting time for my conference was less than 2 minutes and it lasted for about a minute or so with 2-3 basic questions. Finally, my chest number was announced and there I was, standing with a plus sign on my chest, amongst the ones crossing the biggest barrier in the pursuit of becoming officers. I dedicated this achievement to my family and friends who were always great support,  also I thanked Col Sagar Patwardhan, SM for his pivotal role in training me.
Lastly, what I personally inducted in my life was one trick. If you imagine yourself to be officers beforehand and do all the daily tasks in your life in a way they do, it will certainly help in developing a personality what defence desires in a person. Even if you fail, you will at least improve to develop a pleasing attitude and that is gentlemen the essence of life – improvement. Don’t depend on fate as fate is forged by efforts. Give your best, be confident and natural and you shall be through.
Good luck and Jai Hind.
