02 April 2025, Dayanand Sports Stadium, Gurukul Kangri University, Haridwar, Uttarakhand:

Today, 700 students demonstrated the military training given to them by the joint efforts of Rashtriya Sainik Sanstha and Akhand Hind Fauj.

These students are children studying in various schools of Uttar Pradesh who have been made good citizens and have also been given initial military training to join the army.

National President of Rashtriya Sainik Sanstha, Veer Chakra recipient Colonel Tejendra Pal Tyagi said that those who have received initial military training will neither burn buses nor damage government property. He said that from 2016 till date, about 15 thousand children have been given initial military training. These children are the heritage of the country. Their services can be taken in the interest of the country in an emergency.

Hon'ble Lieutenant General Gurmeet Singh Ji, Governor of Uttarakhand took the salute of the trained children and said that today seeing the excellent drill and feats of these children, I am remembering the Azad Hind Fauj. I admire the dedication, discipline and honesty of all the members of Rashtriya Sainik Sanstha and Akhand Hind Fauj. Today I feel that the coming generation will take this country to the highest peak. General Gurmeet ji analyzed the magnetic importance and social significance of "Jai Hind" and suggested the students to use "Jai Hind" as a slogan, identity and a weapon.

Presiding over the function, Professor Dr. Pawan Sinha Guru ji explained the difference between personal character and national character to the children. He reminded that Swami Vivekananda had said that I would ask the youth to play football more than reading Gita.

Patron of Akhand Hind Fauj Commodore Vijay Babele and President Shri Om Prakash Awasthi demanded from the state governments and the central government that a campaign should be run in schools across the country for such military training and the responsibility of this should be given to Rashtriya Sainik Sanstha and Akhand Hind Fauj at a joint level.

On this occasion, Chairman of National Economic Council of Rashtriya Sainik Sanstha Shri Rajan Chhibber, senior-most member of National Administrative Council Major General ML Aswal, National Convenor of Education Wing Major General OP Soni told in their own words that these 700 students are neither from NCC, nor from NSS, nor are they Scouts. These are school students, out of which 330 are girl students. That is, a new generation is being prepared for internal security in the country.

On this occasion, Team Gaurav Senani BP Sharma from Dehradun, Team Gaurav Senani Chandan Singh from Ghaziabad, State Spokesperson of Uttar Pradesh Shri Gyanendra Tyagi, Team Mukesh from Hapur, Team Brahma Kumari from Muzaffarnagar, Women Wing Team Usha Rana, Monica Goyal along with hundreds of patriots openly welcomed the parade, saluting, pyramid formation, coming out of the fireball, guard of honor of the youth.

The coordinator of the program, President of Roorkee Mandal of Rashtriya Sainik Sanstha Rahul Puri and Director of Akhand Hind Fauj Rajendra Tripathi said that today when Governor Lieutenant General Gurmeet Singh ji was taking salute from 700 youth, the scene was similar to what would have been there when Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose took command of Azad Hind Fauj. The parade was conducted by Cadet Dheeraj Patel.
