Question

Read the paragraph and answer the questions given below. As armed forces protect the country at borders, NCC cadets play a big role during various emergency situations within the country. So, NCC is rightly called the second line of Defence. We have always seen them helping people during Floods, tsunamis etc. This time, the government decided to rope in the cadets of the National Cadet Corps (NCC), to help the Indian civil infrastructure in the fight against the widening coronavirus outbreak. The NCC moved to help the civilian authorities by extending the services of its cadets under a program called ‘Exercise NCC Yogdan’. 25,000 cadets were mobilized to provide necessary local assistance. Under the initiative, Exercise NCC Yogdan, a set of guidelines have been issued for temporary deployment of cadets to augment relief efforts and functioning of various agencies involved in fighting the outbreak. According to guidelines, cadets will not be employed in handling law and order situations or for active military duties. Only Senior Division boy and Senior Wing girl volunteer cadets above 18 years old are being mobilized in small and cohesive groups of eight to 20 under the supervision of permanent instructor staff or their associate NCC officers.
