Port Blair, Jan 12: The Member of Parliament, Shri. Kuldeep Rai Sharma has requested the Hon’ble Defence Minister of India to conduct regular recruitment drives of Army, Navy and Air Force in Andaman & Nicobar Islands so that Islands youths, who grow up with the dream of serving our Nation can join Indian Armed Forces and serve our country.

In a letter addressed to the Hon’ble Defence Minister of India, New Delhi, he mentioned that this is a matter of extreme pride that a large number of youths from Andaman & Nicobar Islands are either serving the armed forces in different ranks or have retired after serving 15 to 20 years in Defence Services. “Many youths of these Islands have raised to very high rank in Defence Forces to make Andaman proud while there are many Heroes of Andaman, who have made supreme sacrifice while protecting our country,” he mentioned.
