Ex-Agniveers to Get 50% Reservation in CAPF

The Indian government has announced that ex-Agniveers, who are soldiers leaving the military after four years under the Agnipath scheme, will get special benefits if they want to join paramilitary forces like the CRPF or BSF.

Half of the job openings for constables and riflemen will be reserved for them.

They won't have to take a written test or physical exams, and they'll get extra years added to their age limit.

This is to help them find jobs after their military service.

The first group of Agniveers is still serving, so the policy hasn't been used yet.

The government says they might change the rules later if needed.
