DIAMOND HARBOUR (WB): Navy chief Admiral Sunil Lanba on Tuesday inaugurated the fifth full-fledged Service Selection Board (SSB) of the Indian Navy here, a defence official said.
The selection board at this riverside town on the banks of the Hooghly, situated 50 km from Kolkata, is capable of screening over 200 candidates at a time, and is expected to assess 10,000 to 12,000 candidates in a year.
The board boasts of most advanced facilities – latest psychological testing software, most advanced accommodation, fibre optics-enabled LAN connectivity and a selection management system — for assessing candidates aspiring to become officers in the Indian Navy, the official said.
