The Indian Army – A Glorious Heritage, Says Kapil Sibal
Minister for Human Resource Development, Shri Kapil Sibal released a book titled ‘The Indian Army – A Glorious Heritage’ today at Shastri Bhawan, New Delhi. Army Chief Gen Deepak Kapoor, Director, NCERT Prof G Ravindra and other dignitaries from the Army and the ministry were also presented during the function.

The book published by NCERT specifically compiled for the young age group contains authentic inspirational accounts from India’s wars, traces the history, sacrifice and evolution of the Army and provides details on the entry system in to its ranks. The book attempts create an awareness towards army in a readable style.

The minster and the Army Chief both appreciated the effort and reiterated the need of constantly upgrading our military capabilities for the country.

Speaking on the occasion, Gen Kapoor revealed that the book comes as a culmination of sustained effort to reach out to the vast talent pool available at the school level. Through the efforts of NCERT and state boards, photographs and promotional material has been included in text books.

The NCERT, under the aegis of the HRD ministry has always been extremely supportive. The book has been published by the NCERT as a non textual adjunct and is available in all their outlets. Veerendra/RPA/DS
