Nagaland chief minister T R Zeliang expressed hope that more Naga youths would join Indian army not only to “merely” obtain a job but as an opportunity to serve the country.
Addressing a gathering at the flag off ceremony of the Indian army recruitment rally Tuesday at IG Stadium Kohima, Zeliang lauded the Naga youths for coming forward to serve the state and the nation.
The chief minister also appealed to all the Nagas, already serving in the army, to motivate their fellow brothers and to educate them about the positive culture and the benefits in terms of skills, discipline and personality improvements that comes from serving in the army.
Zeliang also expressed happiness for the overwhelming response and conveyed his best wishes to all the candidates appearing in the recruitment rally “this rally will provide better opportunities to our youth to join the Indian army”, he added.
He pointed out that the youth of Nagaland always had exceptional martial skills, where officers and soldiers from Nagaland have done the Nation and the Indian army proud on numerous occasions by displaying exemplary valour and gallantry in war and in other operation against antinational forces in Jammu & Kashmir.
The chief minister also expressed gratitude to Brigadier Lamba and his team for conducting the rally in the state of Nagaland and assured them of all the needed help and cooperation from the civil administration.
He also complimented director of Sainik Welfare and Resettlement, Nagaland brigadier K.K Roy Choudhury and his staff for motivating the Naga youth, by providing free of cost coaching and guidance to facilitate them to qualify in the recruitment test.

Nagaland also has tremendous athletic potential.

PM Modiji should also look forward to building a sports and athletics university in Nagaland as well.

They are good people. It is just some fringe elements that spoil their image.

Nagas are Warrior people & would definitely increase our Army's capability to defend our Nation

Nagaland also has tremendous athletic potential.

PM Modiji should also look forward to building a sports and athletics university in Nagaland as well.

Indeed NE alone can raise our Olympic Medal tally by a lot

The Naga Regiment is the youngest Regiment of the Indian Army. In 1970, the First Battalion of the Naga Regiment was raised in Ranikhet.

The battalion was the first one to be inducted into Operation Vijay in the Drass Sector on 11 May 1999. During this operation, the battalion captured Black Rock, Thums Up, Pyramid (all part of Point 5140), Pimple Hill (later renamed as Naga Hill) and Point 5060. The battalion was awarded with two Vir Chakra and two Sena Medals for their outstanding performance during this operation. The Second Battalion Naga Regiment has earned one Maha Vir Chakra, two Vir Chakras, one Yudh Seva Medal, one Vishisht Seva Medal and nine Sena Medals.
