About Rovers and Rangers 

Rover Scouting is a service program associated with Scouting for young men, and in many countries, women into their early 20s. A group of Rovers is called a ‘Rover Crew’. Rover Scouting was started by the Boy Scouts Association in the United Kingdom in 1918 to provide a program for young men who had grown up beyond the age range of the Boy Scouts. It was quickly adopted by other national Scouting organizations.

The first Scout troop in India consisting entirely of Anglo-Indian Boys was formed by a Scottish missionary, in the then central province in 1908. However, the troop was disbanded in 1910. Thereafter nine different Scout troops comprising British & Anglo-Indian boys came up in early 1911 in Shimla, Calcutta, Jabalpur, Allahabad, Banglore, Poona, Kirkee, Saidpur, and Madras. Efforts to induct the Indian Boys to scouts movement did not materialize till Montague & Chelnosford appeared on the scene a secretary of the state of India and viceroy of India in 1917. After the Independence of India, the final merger of the Boy Scouts Association and the Hindustan Scout Association took place on 7th Nov. 1950 under the name of “The Bharat Scouts and Guide”.
