From the Principal's desk…….
Central Training College (Telecom& Information Technology) CRPF, Ranchi Jharkhand formerly known as SGC/CTC (Telecom), came into existence in 1970 at Neemuch (M.P).
The history of CTC(T&IT) goes back to October 1952 when signal contingent of 112 personnel was put through wireless training at "Adhoc Wireless Training Centre” Neemuch.
