PUNJAB: The lure for the olive uniform among the Punjab youth has faded over the years as the number of youngsters joining as commissioned officers has declined. The Maharaja Ranjit Singh Armed Forces Preparatory Institute (AFPI), set up by the Punjab government in 2011, is determined to reverse the trend.
The institute has sent 162 cadets to the prestigious National Defence Academy (NDA), Indian Military Academy (IMA) and other service academies since 2013. It has been credited with securing all- India rank 1 in the NDA merit list on two occasions, besides once holding rank 1 in the merit list of Officers Training Academy (OTA) in Chennai.
