Territorial Army of India

Territorial Army of Kolkata
It was 1990, we were deployed somewhere in the western sector of our country. I had joined from my bank’s job. We were Territorial Army (TA) personnel from Kolkata, our unit is affiliated to Garwhal Regiment of Indian Army. In Kolkata, there are 2 Infantry TA battalions and 1 General Hospital (TA).
We used to assemble on Sundays and annual camp for training at the unit located at the southern part of Kolkata. Our employer had released us for military service. We switched over from civilian to TA personnel, some of us performing section commander, platoon commander, company commander & other appointments. There are regular service personnel also in our unit.
We had the various task to perform some time ground defence of airport, ordnance depot, ammunition depot, vital establishments e.t.c.
Our rank structure is same like Indian army, the food for jawans, non commissioned officers, junior commissioned officer and officers are prepared in their respective kitchen some time we had ‘barakhan’ a great feast for all. Some recreation programme makes more attractive. Our unit has an orchestra group they were very popular even for the civil function at the outside.
Like Indian army TA also famous for ceremonial and social activities like TA day (9th Oct), Raising day (15th March), Dushera festival e.t.c. The family members and ex TA personnel join in these days to remember their old days.
Now TA is engaged in the various assignment, mainly internal security. They are performing continuous military service and earning their pension from the Ministry of Defence.
