The camp was inaugurated by Col B. Satyanarayan, Camp Commandant, who highlighted the importance of discipline, leadership and dedication towards nation-building. He encouraged the cadets to make the best use of the training opportunities provided during the camp.
A unique feature of ATC-69 is its specialized orientation as a Remount and Veterinary Squadron camp. Along with regular NCC activities, cadets will also gain exposure to animal care, veterinary practices, animal welfare and equine management. This distinctive combination of military training and veterinary education helps broaden the cadets’ knowledge and skills. .jpg)
