NCC units are running in many colleges of Indore, but the students of this Grade A+ accredited university were could join NCC in absence of its unit on UTD campus.
The initiative to open a unit of NCC in the university campus was taken during the tenure of former vice-chancellor Prof Narendra Dhakad. Before getting the NCC unit, Section 52 of Madhya Pradesh Vishwavidyalaya Act was imposed in DAVV which led to Dhakad's ouster.
After Prof Renu Jain became Vice-Chancellor, the exercise started again and the NCC Headquarters approved the unit for the students of DAVV teaching departments from the session 2021-22. After completing the admission process of this session, the university has now called the applications from interested students for NCC.
