First ever Brahmaputra Sailing Expedition by NCC

NCC Directorate Shillong has embarked on a pioneering project to conduct the First Ever Sailing Expedition in the entire North Eastern Region.

The waters of the mighty Brahmaputra have been selected for this ambitious initiative, using the expertise available with the military personnel of NCC, three sturdy Whaler Sailing boats of the Naval NCC units and support from the Army Eastern Command as well as the Assam State Government.

The focus of this expedition on the same waters where the famous battle of Saraighat was fought in 1671 is to rekindle the memories of the epic bravery of the sons of the soil of Assam, while fostering a spirit of adventure amongst the youth.
