New Delhi, July 18

The Haryana government announced a 10% reservation for Agniveers in police and mining guard jobs.

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said a 5 per cent reservation for Agniveers would be given in Group C posts. Moreover, a three-year age limit relaxation will be given for Group C and Group D posts.

The Agnipath scheme was unveiled by the Centre in 2022 to make the armed forces lean and reduce the defence pension bill. Under the scheme, personnel are recruited in the Army, Navy and the Air Force on a short-term contract of four years. Only 25% are allowed to continue for another 15 years under permanent commission.
