Indian Army Hosts Medical Screening for Assam Youth Recruits

Guwahati: The Indian Army teamed up with Mission SEVA to run a medical camp in Margherita on Tuesday. They want local kids in the military. This event targeted aspirants in Tinsukia district who plan to sign up for Indian Army or Short Service Commission roles. It was a push for new blood. The Red Shield Division and Spear Corps organized the effort to get young people ready for the rigors of service.

Sixty candidates showed up. That group included 48 boys and 12 girls. Doctors checked their height, weight, eyesight, and hearing. They screened for general physical health while handing out advice on personal hygiene and fitness routines. The goal is to clear hurdles before the official recruitment begins.

Army reps and Mission SEVA members spoke to the crowd about discipline and drive. They told the candidates, "maintain physical fitness, discipline and dedication while preparing for the recruitment process." Local leaders and parents must help, too. They need to push eligible youth to seize these opportunities. This program aims to boost youth empowerment and tighten the bond between the military and Assam communities.
