Why Indian Education Needs Military Discipline ft. Col. Rajeev Bagga

In this episode of Building Bharat, we have Col. Rajeev Bagga with us. Col. Rajeev Bagga is a decorated veteran of the Indian Army, having completed 32.5 years of distinguished service. A Jungle and Mountain Survival Expert, he has operated extensively in hostile terrains—especially in Jammu & Kashmir, where he spent over two decades combating terrorism. We focus on how his early life and childhood choices shaped his professional career, the role of discipline in character building and what modern schools need to learn from the military to make better citizens for the future. Throughout the conversation we delve into how army training and military concepts can shape school curriculum and real world organisations to foster a harmonious and productive work culture.
