Another cadet from Punjab has bagged the prestigious 'Sword of Honour' for being adjudged as the overall best during pre-commission training in an Army institution.
The gold medal for standing first in the order of merit went to Lt Majji Giridhar, also the parade commander, while the silver medal for standing first from TGC went to Lt Jasminder Pal Singh Sidhu from Threeke near Ludhiana and is an alumnus of the Rashtriya Indian Military College.
