The Republic Parade


S N College and Polytechnic College always had fights for fame in NCC as we belonged under the battalion the fight was bit strong. We fought for best troop competition during RD and ID parades, for seniority in camps and best ‘treats’ from Battalion and camps too. Always S N College had more priority in everything but last few years S N College lost their glory in best troop competition parade during Republic day in the Police ground where the competition took place. We have been trying to get back the glory but it seems that the polytechnic cadets were way too strong.

      In 2010 we were the seniors and the drill of our juniors was way too below the standards. So chance of winning was luck. NCC officers saw our performance during the RD rehearsals and mocked us, at the same time they supported Polytechnic cadets. Our seniors was getting tempered and ashamed of it so they thought they definitely had to get back the glory, from that day on many seniors came and started giving us training and training was bit strict. So tough and some of us got tired but the seniors didn’t care. We scolded seniors silently (that’s all we could do) but our parade didn’t go well and for the two rehearsals our standard was low but improved.
     The day before the parade most of the seniors arrived and they gave us lot of confidence and inspiration by their speech and most of us were touched by it. So we thought definitely we have to win this. And we did! That’s was a great moment to be cherished, finally we got our glory back and we mocked at polytechnic seniors and juniors in the bus while we returned. You should have seen their faces filled with shame. We were roaring like victorious lion.
