SRI SRI UNIVERSITY

Range firing is an important and compulsory training for all the NCC cadets. Weapon training is a very important part of NCC where cadets learn the art of shooting. This is done so that the fear of firearms can be removed from the minds of the cadets. The art of shooting teaches precision, accuracy, co-ordination of body movements, confidence and holistic development of a cadet which helps to make a better person in public.
