Announced in June 2022, the Agnipath scheme led to a new path to enter the prestigious Indian Defence Services. An Agniveer soldier is recruited for a fixed tenure in the defence services i.e. 4 years.
The Agniveer Course would focus on students who want to serve the nation as soldiers as well as an honourable citizen later in their life. The students will be trained for all the 3 stages of the exam- The Written ,Recruitment Rally, and Medical Test.
As a retired Agniveer soldier the students will be provided with INR 10.4 lakhs as a Seva Nidhi package. Based on the results of the Internal Examination conducted after the completion of 4 years, 25% of the soldiers will get the chance to become a permanent soldier and serve the nation further.
