Hailing from Subhanpur in Kapurthala, Lieutenant Amandeep Singh Multani got commissioned in the Army via the Technical Entry Scheme.

Lieutenant Amandeep matriculated from St Francis Convent School, Kartarpur, and passed his Class XII from MGN Public School, Jalandhar, in 2015. His father Dalip Singh retired as an audit officer form Municipal Corporation, Jalandhar, and his mother Kulwant Kaur is a government school teacher. He had joined Officers’ Training Academy (OTA), Gaya, in 2016.

The parents, who could not attend their son’s passing out parade and pipping ceremony said, “Inspired from his grandfather, my son was keen on joining the Army since his childhood. His favourite toys had been tanks and guns.

Today, it was the day he realised his dream and unfortunately we could not join him on his accomplishment. Owing to Covid-19, the ceremony could not be held at OTA, Gaya, and was held at College of Military Engineering, Pune.” Lieutenant Multani has been allotted 22nd Rajput Regiment.
