He wished the parting officer, in the best traditions of civilian niceties, God speed and God bless, promising on behalf of the students to continue nurturing the seeds planted by havildar Gurung and others so that the tree may reach its fruition in the fullness of time.
In his farewell speech, Havildar Gurung recalled with happiness and pride the way that the young members of the fledgling BESC NCC unit have stuck to the tasks, improving on a daily basis, only to turn it into a habit.
He reiterated the commitment to the motherland and urged more and more students to make serving the country by joining the armed forces into a career option. Havildar Gurung listed out the many benefits that the armed forces offer to young men and women, pointing that all of them, put together does not have the same pleasure as being in a uniform and dedicating one’s self to the service of the Nation.
