Meanwhile, PO Cadet Nilesh Sahu will participate in the PM Rally Parade.
During the camp, the cadets also have the opportunity to meet distinguished leaders, including the President, Prime Minister, Defense Minister, Delhi’s Chief Minister, Minister of State for Defense, Chief of Defense Staff, and the Chiefs of the three armed forces.
