Earlier in 2011 I wrote NDAbecause of compulsion of my grandpa who is Halvidar in Indian Territorial Army.I’m not interested in joining armed forces because I saw how my grandma feels badabout grandpa when he took adventure in life.so,because of his compulsion andwith no interest I wrote NDA cleared written exam ,appeared ssb –bhopal ,gotrecommended ,went medical test got fit for all forces but funny things happenedaround me.in merit list my name is not appeared,I understand I’m merited out. Thenin 2011 I joined engineering college with full interest in electrical subject.
SSB Interview Experiance of JOJO
In 2012, I came to hearabout 26/11 attack which happened on 2008, I heard about Maj.sandeepunnikrishnan/NSG,Kerala who dedicated his young life for India. Then on 15 June 2013,uttarahandflood occurs ten days after , on June 25 ,Indian air force pilot officerPraveen Kumar dies in rescue operation he is from Madurai district Tamilnadu. Iwas thinking “Y this young men age 22-30 ,dedicating his life for mothercountry .I was little confused too. Suddenly on August 14 2013 INS sindhurashak got sunk in Mumbaidockyard 11 officer died 7 missed following on feb 04 2014 INS sindhuratna gotsunk near Mumbai. On moral ground Admiral D.K.Joshi resigned his chief of navalstaff rank. I was thinking a man of high post resigned in name of moralgrounds. Fromfeb 2014 I goggled I learned value of officer like qualities from manysite,result of that is now I’m frequent visitor of ssb, 26*7*365 dreaming stars,uniformed life.
Coming to myexperience in which I recently had in 12-SSB, Bangalore on march 15 2015. I need toshare many points to readers. Earlier after NDA I went attended Afcat exam in2014, cleared attended 2-AFSB, butconference out. When I’m in pre-final year I applied UES-24 in Indian armyscreened out in campus interview itself. Then in month of June 2014 I appliedfor UES-15 in Indiannavy, attended campus interview on sep 28 2014,cleared.
I thank to”JayendraPratapsingh’,a good mentor of mine ,will reply in 24*7 around theclock motivates me like dad. His words are like cement to build carrier inuniformed life. I also thank brave “Tashi Mishra “ for her informative blogs.So from sep 28 2014,I prepared to face ssb.
