Dear Cadets and Respected Parents,

1. It is with immense pride and a deep sense of responsibility that I assume charge as the Director of MKDEI. After honourably serving the Indian Army for over 36 years, I now embark on a new mission—to guide, mentor, and shape the next generation of armed forces leaders.

2. My journey in uniform was one of commitment, discipline, and diverse experience. From serving in challenging operational areas to handling key staff roles, every assignment taught me the values of leadership, integrity, and perseverance. Having undergone Group Testing Officer (GTO) Course at DIPR, I’ve had the privilege of assessing and grooming aspirants for the Services Selection Boards (SSB), and I now bring that same focus and expertise to MKDEI.

3. Here at MKDEI, we are not just preparing students for exams—we are developing
cadets into future officers. Our mission goes beyond academics. We instill officer-like qualities, build confidence, and help each cadet understand what it truly means to wear the uniform with pride and purpose. Together, let us strive to build officers who will lead with honour and serve with courage.

Wishing all of you the very best.

JAI HIND..
