SECTION XlI
SAFETY & SECURITY
165. Safety and Security of Personnel, Equipment and Stores is of paramount

importance and it is the responsibility of entire staff present in any kind of training
activity to ensure the same. However, few incidents in the recent past indicate that
due attention is not being paid towards this sensitive and very important issue. Any
negligence on part of any staff member results in loss of life and damage to property.
Thus there is a need to adopt a zero tolerance attitude towards incidents leading to
injuries, loss of life or damage to property. In view of the foregone, a need is felt to
promulgate detailed Instructions regarding safety and security of the NCC Cadets
attending various organized training activities within or outside the state. The salient
aspects of safety and security as related to conduct of camps are highlighted in this
section.
166. Camps are an important and integral aspect of NCC activities. The camps also
mark the culmination of institutionalized training being imparted to the cadets in their
respective educational institutions. Camps provide exposure to the cadets to a near
military like condition of living and group activity which they would not see normally.
These activities are conducted to meet the overall aim of NCC to bring out leadership
qualities, develop strength and stamina and build espirit-de-corps amongst the cadets.
The camps are conducted outdoors and the activities are rigorous in nature. It is
therefore important to ensure that proper safety measures are incorporated in various
camps. Certain broad guidelines related to safety of the cadets during conduct of
these camps are as follows:-
(a) All ATCs/CATCs will be organised under the supervision of the Group
HQs and will be attended by at least Three Officers.
(b) Reconnaissance and planning of all locations of camps that the cadets
are required to visit or halt will be carried out well in advance and approved by
the Group HQs.
(c) Camp site and location of various training areas should specifically be
seen through the prism of security of cadets keeping the essential requirement
for conduct of camps in mind.
(d) On arrival in the camp cadets will be distributed into convenient squads
preferably of 12-15 cadets each and a squad leader will be nominated. The
squad leader will be responsible for the safety and conduct of the squad. The
squad must be encouraged to carry out all activities together. This will not only
ensure security but also help cadets imbibe lessons of leadership and team
spirit. Two to three squads will be grouped to form a team under a PI Staff/GCI
(in case of girl cadets). These teams will report to the Deputy Camp
Commandant regarding safety of cadets.
76
(e) Security Instructions as laid down in the Camp routine orders will be

movement of cadets in difficult areas it becomes imperative that necessary security
instructions be put in place in order to prevent any mishap. Cadets from other states
participate in these treks hence, it becomes the responsibility of respective ADGs/
DDGs to ensure its smooth and safe conduct. Enumerated below are certain planning
85
parameters as guidelines for safe conduct of treks:-
(a) Trek routes should be planned and selected well in advance keeping all
aspects of security in mind. This is the responsibility of the Conducting Dte.
(b) Existing or available trails/ track/ routes should be reviewed and

changed or altered if the situation so demands. Search for alternate sites which
offers a better and safer trekking area/route must be a continuous process.
(c) Camping and Staging Areas must be planned keeping in view availability
of adequate space for camping, accessibility from main road for provisioning of
water, food supply, ease of evacuation etc.
(d) The activities planned for the duration of the trek should be as per the
guidelines given in the SOP or Instructions issued from time to time.
(e) The trek route selected should be commensurate with the skill and
fitness level of the participating cadets.
(f) There should be dedicated supervisory staff detailed for each trek that
will be responsible for briefing, conduct, supervision, safety, administration
and for discipline of the cadets for their respective routes.
(g) Vulnerable areas along each trek route should be identified, necessary
precautionary measures instituted and necessary life-saving expedients and
emergency medical services be catered for.
(h) Water bodies will be avoided for establishment of camping sites/ trekking
routes/ halts. All water bodies will be placed ‘Out of Bound’ for all participating
in the treks.
(j) Avoid steep climbs/cliffs and treacherous routes and plan detours which
are not dangerous.
(k) Avoid river beds, canals, nullahs etc. Many rivers and nullahs have steep
banks and shores due to erosion which can give way suddenly.
(l) Avoid highways, railway tracks etc and when a road has to be used
ensure road safety.
(m) Avoid activity at night. Arrival at destination must be planned 2-3 hours
before last light in all cases to prevent stragglers getting lost in hours of
darkness. Start early and finish daily routes well before dark.
(n) Treks must be conducted in fair weather to avoid periods of rain or snow.
Climatic conditions can suddenly turn adverse even if planned well, therefore
proper precautions against adverse weather conditions must be taken.
86
(o) Avoid areas having altitude of more than 2500m without proper
acclimatization and professional supervision.
(p) Carry out a study of the flora and fauna of the region and take suitable
precautions against animal attack, insects and poisonous undergrowth.
(q) Maps of trekking routes should be made and displayed prominently for
all cadets to see. Proper briefing of routes should be carried out on the first day
and dangerous areas to be avoided be informed.
(r) All assistance of local administration should be sought to ensure that

adequate medical facilities are provide for the cadets in the camps.
(s) Assistance of local Army Units CAPF in terms of resources which

contribute towards safe and smooth conduct of the treks should be taken.
192. A detailed hand book on security instructions on Treks has already been
forwarded vide letter No 17812/ Trek-2013/DG NCC/Trg E dated 24 Jun 2013 and the
same should be followed in letter and spirit.
Safety During Obstacle Course Training
193. Obstacle Course forms an important aspect of training in NCC to build

confidence and team spirit amongst the cadets. Obstacle training must be conducted
under the supervision of an officer–in-charge and adequate No of PI staff to supervise
as well as ensure safety at each obstacle. The following safety guidelines will be
adopted while conducting the training:-
(a) The cadets should be sent in pairs to do the obstacles course.
(b) The staff should be positioned at Start Point, Wall and at Finish Point.
(c) One PI staff will man each obstacle. They should see that the cadets
cross each obstacle correctly and safely.
(d) The next pair may start after the earlier pair has crossed the 6ft wall, to
close the time. However, ideally the next pair should start only after the earlier
pair has crossed finish line.
(e) The OIC conducting the obstacle course should remain vigilant and
observe the entire activity. He must also ensure that all aspects pertaining to
safety mentioned in the instructions are met before commencement of training
on the course especially the Dos' and Don'ts.
(f) A Nursing Assistant with first aid kit and a vehicle (preferably an
ambulance) must be available at the training area while conducting obstacle
training.
87
(g) Not more than 40 cadets should be undergoing training at one time.
194. The following will be avoided:-
(a) Obstacle training when the area is wet because the mud gets stuck to
shoes which makes the obstacle slippery and thus can lead to injury/ accident.
(b) Training in peak cold/ hot weather conditions and/or when humidity
levels are high as it leads to dehydration and early tiredness.
(c) Training without adequate supervisory staff and medical cover.
(d) Force unwilling cadets to do the obstacle course.
(e) Allow jumbling/ crowding up at any obstacle.
Safety During Rock Climbing Training
195. Rock Climbing, as the name suggests, involves climbing a rocky feature using
one's own hands and feet. This style of climbing is referred to as bouldering, since the
relevant routes are usually found on boulders no more than 10 to 15 feet tall. As
routes get higher off the ground, the increased risk of life-threatening injuries
necessitates additional safety measures. A variety of specialized climbing techniques
and climbing equipment exists to provide that safety. Climbers usually work in pairs
and utilize a system of ropes and anchors designed to catch falls. Ropes and anchors
can be configured differently to suit many styles of climbing. Generally speaking,
beginners will start with top roping and/ or easy bouldering and work their way up to
lead climbing and beyond.
196. The following safety precautions are required to be observed during the RCTC:-
(a) Rock climbing should always be done only after having received proper
training.
(b) Warm up before beginning a climb is necessary. This will help prevent
sprains.
(c) Wearing of safety equipment properly is important. It should not be too

loose or tight.
(d) Always check harnesses after having geared up. There should be no
loose carabineer.
(e) Always check knots before climbing: always double check the tie-in knot
(usually a Figure-8 follow-through).
88
(f) Always check that the rope is properly threaded through the belay
device.
(g) Always ensure that climbing rope is long enough to reach the anchors.
(h) A climbing helmet is essential. Always wear one when climbing or

belaying. Helmets too protect the head from falling rocks and from the impact of
falling.
(j) Always maintain a 'three point contact' while climbing, i.e. either both
feet and one hand or both hands and one feet should always be in contact
with the rock surface.
(k) While climbing, make sure your foot holds and hand holds are secure
before using them.
(l) Always ensure that the carabineer gate faces opposite direction of travel,
otherwise the rope can come unclipped. Always use locking carabineers on
important placements.
(m) Always make sure that the rope is over the leg rather than between or
behind them.
(n) Always use at least two anchors. Three is better. Redundancy keeps you
alive.
(o) While climbing, if one begins to slip or slide, keep calm and relax. Try not
to panic. Simply grab onto the safety cord and slowly begin to slide down the
mountain.
(p) Always pay attention to the leader above when belaying since he's the
one who is taking the risk of a fall. Never take the leader off belay unless
absolutely certain he is tied in and safe.
(q) While rappelling, keep loose clothing, hair and straps away from the
rappel device and keep brake hand (right hand) on the rope at all times.
(r) While Rappelling, keep upper body upright or perpendicular to the

climbing wall to decrease the likelihood of loose clothing or hair getting trapped.
89
Dos and Don’ts
197. Certain essential Do's and Don'ts which are required to be observed while Rock
Climbing are enumerated below: -
(a) Do’s
(i) Do stay alert at all times, i.e. before, during and after climbing.
(ii) Do practice how to maintain balance. When climbing, one will

have to balance on adequate handholds and footholds and move to the
next point without losing balance.
(iii) Do build up your hand and feet muscles as they are the ones that
will actually move you from one point to another.
(iv) Do stretching exercises before and after to keep the muscles

flexible and eliminate cramps.
(v) Do check the equipment thoroughly before climbing.
(vi) Do wear proper fitting helmet, harness and shoes. They should
neither be too tight nor too loose.
(vii) Do drink lots of water to replenish the lost electrolytes in the body
after the climb.

(ix) Do make it a habit to use complete and appropriate verbal

commands like 'climbing' and 'off-belay' to maintain uniformity for easy
understanding.
(x) Do inform the instructor of any illness which one may be suffering
from. Even a small injury in one finger can lead to a major problem while
climbing.
(xi) Do tape the fingers and use chalk to prevent blisters.
(b) Don’ts

character. This is gained by mastering ones job thoroughly and being able to
impart the knowledge so gained to others efficiently. Confidence in ones own
ability inspires confidence in those being led thus developing ones personality
and a sense of self-respect. Confidence is also acquired by wisely delegating
and shouldering responsibility in the performance of ones duties.
119
Discipline
3. (a) General. Drill, physical training, weapons training, etc, play a vital part
in fostering discipline. Discipline demands self-control and faithful obedience of
Smartness, good carriage, alertness of mind, punctuality and courtesy are
outward manifestations of a disciplined leader. Discipline also involves control
over ones needs and desires and a reasoned and methodical approach to all
problems confronted.
(b) Devotion to duty. Duty to a disciplined leader comes before self and
personal comforts. Efficient performance of ones duty in this manner elevates
a leader mentally and enables him to devote himself to higher causes.
Devotion to duty also demands thoroughness in its performance, which is
acquired through the day to day training in the NCC.
(c) Determination. A leader must learn to take quick and judicious

decisions and then carry them out without being let astray by distractions ad
temptations. He has to be firm and resolute by displaying disciplined will power
and boldness.
(d) Self Discipline. As a leader it should be incumbent on each cadet to

display sense of self discipline. It should be the endeavour to impress upon the
cadets the value of self discipline and ensure that same is adhered to. The
cadets while attending camps should be encouraged to inculcate the virtue of
self discipline and same should be explained in detail by the instructors.
Setting An Example
4. (a) General. A leader should be able to set an example before those

whom he leads. lt is rightly said that example is better than precept. It need no
emphasis person who by his character, knowledge, bearing and discipline can
set an example before others is sure to command prompt obedience, gain
respect and willing co operation from them. With his academic background,
broad vision and training a good cadet should be able to lay an example before
other cadets not only from the military angle but also in the other spheres of
leadership explained above.
(b) Enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is infectious and more so if an example is

set before the cadets who are young and full of life. Enthusiasm in the
organization can be kept alive by sound planning and vigorous execution of
training on the parade ground and in camps. This along with the exploitation of
inherent adventurous spirit amongst the cadets can ever keep enthusiasm
aglow.
(c) On Energetic Approach. Lack of energetic approach to task conveys

lack of interest leading to indifferent results. A leader should never allow this
whether in the training camp, parade ground or at a social function. Whatever
work is undertaken should be carried out with vigor to fully utilize the abundant
energy of the youthful cadets. A good leader by his personal example in this
120
direction will encourage others to display and develop the attributes of service
and sacrifice.
Ability to Command
5. (a) General Ability to Command. Cadets are trained to command those

placed under them. In order to be able to command efficiently it is necessary
that a leader is trained in the duties of command and knows his job well. Not
only should he be able to exercise command on the parade ground but should
be able to attend to several other important aspects of his command covered
under “Man Management.”
(b) Man Management. The following points need to be borne in mind as far
as Man Management is concerned:-
(i) Inspect the cadets before and after every exercise parade to ensure
that they are alert, correctly dressed and carry required equipment.
(ii) See to the physical fitness and comfort of the cadets.
(iii) Ensure that the cadets get their meals at the time laid down and that
the meals are cooked well.
(iv) Be fair and impartial in the distribution of duties and working

parties.
(v) Look after the recreation of the cadets.
(vi) Keep them alert and up to the standard in turn out and smartness
at all times.
(c) Orders. It is important that a Commander understands the

importance of an order. When you give one, give it as an ORDER clear,
definite and authoritative and see that the recipient carries it out. A leader
should be able to command obedience by the application of attributes given
above which should be reflected in his personality. A leader should also
display power of understanding, tact, boldness and initiative in the handling of
those under his command.
(d) Communication Skills. It is important for the Commanders to

understand the value of communication skills. To this end it should be
endeavoured that all cadets are given an opportunity to hone this skill by way of
Public Speaking which should be conducted during the camp. A cadet should
be able to speak on any topic for five minutes preferably in English.
(e) Team Spirit and Camaraderie. Team Spirit and Camaraderie is an

essential ingredient for building a team. The responsibility of building the same
lies with the Leader. Team building exercise should be formulated and
undertaken during the camp to ensure that the cadets understand the nuances
of Team Spirit and Camaraderie. These can be undertaken as case studies
121
from day to day activities which should bring out the role of leader in team
building culminating in Team Spirit and Camaraderie.
Conclusion
6. The NCC has in it a good raw material for our future Leaders and
Commanders. The duty of training Cadet on the lines suggested above and in
keeping with the aims of the organization devolves on Regular Officers as well as
ANO’s. Sincere and serious efforts needs to be put in by all concerned to make
success of “Leadership” Training.
