History:

National Cadet corps (NCC) has its genesis in the University Corps’, which was created under the Indian Defense Act 1917 with the object to make up the shortage of the Army. In 1920, when the Indian Territorial Act was passed, the University Corps’ was replaced by University Training Corps’ ( UTC). In 1942, the UTC was renamed as University Officers Training Corps’ (UOTC). The need to create a youth organization at National Level to train the young boys & girls to be better citizen and further leaders of our great country in all walks of life, including defense forces, was rightly realized by our leaders. A committee under Pandit H.N. Kunzru was set up in 1946 at the behest of our first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. The NCC came into existence on 16th July 1948 under the Act XXXVI of 1948 under the Ministry of Defense (MOD). It was constituted in Andhra Pradesh in May 1949.
