I was aware of Territorial Army (TA), I had applied for TA Commission while I was serving Food Corporation of India, I left this organisation after 6 and 1/2 years. My application for TA Commission was approved by Central Office of State Bank of. India. I got recommissioned in TA in July1983, I was posted to 107 Infantry Battalion,it was located then Jalpahar, Darjeeling.This unit men are from hills mostly Gurkha. In the Indian Army I have the experience to serve with Gurkhas. The Gurkhas from West Nepal are simple and sweet.
I got married in July 1982. We had 2 days reception programs first day at Territorial Army Institute (TAI) at Brigade Parade Ground and next day at my home at Central Kolkata. I had an opportunity to meet Col A K Sanyal, an Officer from Brigade of Guards. He was then It Secretary of TAI.
The TAI was available to me free of charge including guest room.
In 1983 I Was finnancially supported by Dept of Youths Services, Government of India it was promotion of mountain adventure. TAI was available to us free of cost for holding 6 days program.
In May 1984 an Army exhibition was held at Fort William. There were 2 stalls on Bengal's contribution India's freedom struggle and Indian Armed Forces.
