A felicitation ceremony to honour cadets who have brought laurels to the Chandigarh NCC Group in various competitions conducted during pre-Vayu Sainik camp was held here today.

Two Air Wing cadets — Shubham and Sachin Godara — had won the gold medal in aero-modeling, while Aditi had bagged a bronze medal in .22 rifle shooting and Aditi Pandey had won bronze in 12-bore skeet shooting.
