EVERY citizen holds a fundamental duty to uphold the “Our Three Main National Causes”: the non-disintegration of the Union, the non-disintegration of national solidarity, and the perpetuation of sovereignty. In fulfilment of these responsibilities, young people who enthusiastically registered have been undergoing training, and the graduation ceremonies for People’s Military Service Training 21 were held yesterday at various training depots across the respective military commands.
The graduation ceremonies followed a formal military parade, during which trainees took a solemn oath of allegiance while holding the national flag. Officials from each training depot delivered graduation addresses and presented awards to trainees who demonstrated outstanding performance throughout the course.
Following the ceremonies, chief ministers from the respective Regions and States, along with commanders of various commands and officials, met with the newly graduated soldiers of Course 21 in the school halls. They delivered encouraging remarks and greeted the graduates warmly. During the course, trainees were provided with systematic instruction in physical fitness, military drill, combat tactics, and general subjects.
Under the Constitution, the State protects the rights of its citizens, who in turn are required to perform national duties. Committed to fulfilling these obligations, these exemplary citizens have completed their training and are now undertaking their roles in national defence and security. — MNA/KNN
