Mohali, Oct. 6 -- The collaborative partnership between Shemrock Senior Secondary School, Sector 69, and the Maharaja Ranjit Singh Armed Forces Preparatory Institute (MRSAFPI), Sector 77, Mohali, continues to set stellar benchmarks. This dynamic synergy has successfully groomed fourteen batches, contributing over 270 cadets to India's premier defence training academies. While their past achievements are significant, the Mohali institutions have made history by inducting the maximum number of cadets to the National Defence Academy (NDA) from a single institution. Session 2024-25 has raised the bar even higher: 14th Course: 31 out of 41 boys cleared the NDA examination, achieving a success rate of 75.6%. Overall record: Including the senior course results, a total of 47 out of 57 cadets secured selection into the NDA, taking the overall selection rate to a phenomenal 82.5%. This success is a testament to the vision and dedication of Amarjit Singh Bajwa, chairman of Shemrock School, and Major General Ajay H Chauhan, director of MRSAFPI. Bajwa congratulated the cadets, stating: "This record selection rate is a result of the collective efforts of our institutions and the unwavering hard work of our students." Major General Ajay H Chauhan emphasised the quality of training: "This selection is not just a story of statistics; it is an example of discipline, preparation, and teamwork." General Chauhan credited the vision of former Punjab CM Parkash Singh Badal, who initiated the Academy in April 2011 to address the dwindling number of Punjabis in the armed forces. The students shared their excitement, stating it was a moment of pride and that they look forward to serving Bharat Mata as soon as possible. Karan Bajwa, MD of Shemrock School, also shared his views on the occasion....
