The government is set to announce the Agnipath recruitment scheme very soon. Three service chiefs will address a press briefing and will announce the details of the scheme. The scheme is likely to be approved by Union Cabinet in the coming week as the defense forces have already started making preparations for its rollout. SSBCrackexam will keep you posted regarding the New Aginath recruitment scheme as soon as it is officially announced. You can check out what is Agnipath Exam, Agnipath selection procedure, Agnipath exam dates, Agnipath eligibility criteria, Agnipath exam pattern, Agnipath exam syllabus, and Agnipath marking scheme will be updated very soon, so stay tuned.
Indian youth to serve in the Armed Forces. The scheme is called AGNIPATH and the youth selected under this scheme will be known as Agniveers. AGNIPATH allows patriotic and motivated youth to serve in the Armed Forces for a period of four years.
The AGNIPATH Scheme has been designed to enable a youthful profile of the Armed Forces. It will provide an opportunity to the youth who may be keen to don the uniform by attracting young talent from the society who are more in tune with contemporary technological trends and plough back skilled, disciplined and motivated manpower into the society. As for the Armed Forces, it will enhance the youthful profile of the Armed Forces and provide a fresh lease of ‘Josh’ and ‘Jazba’ whilst at the same time bring about a transformational shift towards a more tech savvy Armed Forces – which is indeed the need of the hour. It is envisaged that average age profile of Indian Armed forces would come down by about 4-5 years by implementation of this scheme.
The national stands to immensely benefit by infusion of highly inspired youth with deeper understanding of self-discipline, diligence and focus who would be adequately skilled and will be able to contribute in other sectors. The dividends of a short military service to the nation, society and the youth of the nation are immense. This includes inculcation of patriotism, team work, enhancement of physical fitness, ingrained loyalty for the country and availability of trained personnel to boost national security in times of external threats, internal threats and natural disasters.
This is a major defence policy reform introduced by the Government to usher in a new era in the Human Resource policy of the three Services. The policy, which comes into immediate effect, will hereafter govern the enrolment for the three services.
Benefits to the Agniveers
Agniveers will be given an attractive customised monthly package along with Risk and Hardship allowances as applicable in the three services. On completion of the engagement period of four years, Agniveers will be paid one time ‘Seva Nidhi’ package which shall comprise their contribution including accrued interest thereon and matching contribution from the Government equal to the accumulated amount of their contribution including interest as indicated below:
Salary for Agniveer Agnipath Entry Scheme
The ‘Seva Nidhi’ will be exempt from Income Tax. There shall be no entitlement to gratuity and pensionary benefits. Agniveers will be provided non-contributory Life Insurance Cover of Rs 48 lakhs for the duration of their engagement period in the Indian Armed Forces.
During this period of service to the nation, the Agniveers will be imparted with various military skills and experience, discipline, physical fitness, leadership qualities, courage and patriotism. Post this stint of four years, the Agniveers will be infused into the civil society where they can contribute immensely towards the nation building process. The skills gained by each Agniveer will be recognised in a certificate to form part of his unique resume. Agniveers, on completion of the four year tenure in the prime of their youth, will be mature and self-disciplined with the realization to become better version of himself/herself both professionally as also personally. The avenues and opportunities that will open up for their progress in the civil world after Agniveer tenure would certainly be a big plus towards nation building. Moreover, the Seva Nidhi of approximately Rs 11.71 lakhs would aid the Agniveer to pursue his/her future dreams without the financial pressure, which is normally the case for young people from the financially deprived strata of society.
The individuals, selected for enrolment in the Armed Forces as regular cadre, would be required to serve for a further engagement period of minimum 15 years and would be governed by the existing terms and conditions of service of Junior Commissioned Officers/Other Ranks in Indian Army and their equivalent in Indian Navy and Indian Air Force and that of Non Combatant enrolled in the Indian Air Force, as amended from time to time.
The scheme will lead to much more youthful and technically adept war fighting force by ensuring a fine balance between youthful and experienced personnel in the Armed Forces.
Agnipath Army Bharti Scheme Advantages
• A transformative reform of recruitment policy of the Armed Forces. • A unique opportunity to the youth to serve the country and contribute to Nation Building. • Armed Forces profile to be youthful and dynamic. • Attractive financial package for the Agniveers. • Opportunity for Agniveers to train in the best institutions and enhance their skills & qualifications. • Availability of well disciplined and skilled youth with military ethos in civil society. • Adequate re-employment opportunities for those returning to society and who could emerge as role models for the youth
Terms & Conditions Under the AGNIPATH scheme, the Agniveers will be enrolled in the Forces under respective Service Acts for a period of four years. They would form a distinct rank in the Armed Forces, different from any other existing ranks. Upon the completion of four years of service, based on organisational requirement and policies promulgated by the Armed Forces from time-to-time, Agniveers will be offered an opportunity to apply for permanent enrolment in the Armed Forces. These applications will be considered in a centralised manner based on objective criteria including performance during their fouryear engagement period and up to 25% of each specific batch of Agniveers will be enrolled in regular cadre of the Armed Forces. Detailed guidelines will be issued separately.
Enrolment will be undertaken through an online centralised system for all three services with specialised rallies and campus interviews from recognised technical institutes such as Industrial Training Institutes and National Skills Qualifications Framework, among others. Enrolment will be based on ‘All India All Class’ basis and the eligible age will be in range from 17.5 to 21 years. Agniveers will meet the medical eligibility conditions laid down for enrolment in the armed forces as applicable to respective categories/trades. The educational qualification for Agniveers will remain as in vogue for enrollment in various categories. {For example: For entry into General Duty (GD) soldier, the educational qualification is Class 10}
Why In News?
Recently The Three Services Chiefs Briefed Prime Minister Narendra Modi On The New ‘Agnipath’ Recruitment Scheme For the Induction Of Soldiers In Three Defense Services.
The Scheme Is Likely To Be Approved By Union Cabinet In The Coming Week As The Defense Forces Have Already Started Preparing For Its Rollout.
What Is The Agnipath Scheme?
The Agnipath Entry Scheme, A Proposal By The Central Government, Is A New Name Given To The “Tour Of Duty” Entry Scheme.
The Scheme Allows Youngsters To Join The Indian Armed Forces As Soldiers For A Period Of Three Years, A Move That Could Significantly Reduce The Expenditure And The Age Profile Of The Defence Forces. As Of Now, Soldiers Are Recruited Into The Armed Forces On A Permanent Basis.
Discussions On The Tour Of Duty Scheme Started 2 Years Ago. The Scheme Comes At A Time When There Are 1.25 Lakh Vacancies In The Defence Forces And The Recruitment Of Soldiers In The Armed Forces Has Been Halted Since The Last 2 Years Due To COVID-19 Pandemic.
The Scheme Has Been Planned And Prepared By The Department Of Military Affairs Presently Led By Additional Secretary Lt Gen Anil Puri.
How Does The Agnipath Scheme Work?
Candidates Must Be Between 18 And 24 Years To Apply For The Scheme. They Will Have To Qualify Physical Efficiency Test. Educational Requirements Will Be The Same As That Of The Indian Army.
After Completion Of The Three-year Stint, The Defence Forces May Retain, Around 20-25% Of Best Agniveers For Longer Tenures While Releasing The Others For Civilian Jobs.
Those Who Get Relieved From Duty Will Be Aided In Getting Placed In Civilian Jobs. Several Corporate Houses Have Shown Interest In Recruiting These Military-Trained Agniveers.
Current Status Of Agnipath Scheme Recruitments:
If The Project Moves As Per Plan, The Recruitment Process For The First Batch Of Agniveers May Start In The Next Three To Four Months. The Forces Will Also Have The Option Of Recruiting Specialists For Specific Tasks Who Would Perform The Desired Role.
Pros Of The Agnipath Scheme::
Agniveers Would Have Bright Career Options After Serving In The Armed Forces.
The Indian Army Will Have The Option Of Retaining A Few Of Them And They Can Serve The Nation As Permanent Soldiers.
The Soldiers, Who Will Be Relieved After The Three-year Services Will Be Able To Compete In The Civil World As They Will Be Assisted By The Indian Army.
Many Corporate Sectors And Big MNCs Have Shown Interest To Hire “Agniveers”.
The Scheme Can Also Prove To Be Beneficial For The Personal Growth Of Agniveers. They Will Experience The Disciplined Life Of The Armed Forces.
Through Extensive Training That The Personnel Would Go Into, They Will Be Able To Start A Fit And Healthy Lifestyle.
Would Help Government Save a lot of money and spend the same on Modernization of Defence Forces.
Cons Of The Agnipath Scheme:
The Scheme Is Yet To Be Implemented, However, It Will Certainly Have Some Ripples. India Has A Massive Pool Of Unemployed Youths And The Scheme Can Attract People, Who Do Not Want To Join The Army But Are Desperately Looking For A Job.
There Is A High Possibility Of Agniveers Losing Motivation In Work Due To Insecurities Of Being Jobless After Three Years.
