Is there any indication what they use this Fox for? It looks to be on all four tires and not on a concrete pad. Does it run?

How could someone contact them for possible information on details?

Its now a gate guardian and apparrently does not run. They also have two Staghounds state unknown. I'm trying to find a way to contact. Although the NCC has a web site it shows no e mail address. Its effectively an association of university and college cadet corps. In time of war (eg 1971) they have formed a second line defence and therefore own some effective (if older) hardware. I would suspect that at some time the armour was handed down from an Indian Army unit One possibility would be the President's Guard who were once equiped with a mixture of Staghounds and Humbers (Foxes?).
I think there may be an indirect route via the college to which the 1 (Andhra) Armoured Squadron is linked. I'll report if I find anything.

Looks like whoever designed that building had been onto the ganga or whacky backy for a LONG time.
