J&K: Indian Navy Revives Training Centre at Manasbal Lake after 33 Years
The Indian Navy revived a training area at Jammu and Kashmir's Manasbal Lake in Ganderbal district. Officials said that the facility in central Kashmir was excellent for the naval training of NCC in J&K. However, due to deteriorating security situation back then, the site had to be abandoned in 1989. The training areas were then shifted to the Mansar Lake in Jammu. After a gap of 33 years and since the security situation has improved in J&K, as per officials, Indian Navy started providing training to NCC cadets here again.
Speaking to reporters at the training centre, Group Commander NCC Group Srinagar Brigadier K. S. Kalsi said it is a momentous occasion and a red-letter day for the NCC in the Kashmir valley.
