The Indian Army is the fourth largest army in the world. There are more than 10 lakh soldiers in the Indian Army. However, since 2022, Agniveer soldiers are being recruited according to the new rules. But now the question is whether an Agniveer soldier can get promotion and reach the rank of Major. Today we will tell you how a soldier can reach the rank of Major.
Major Rank
Let us tell you that there are two types of soldiers in the Indian Army at present. One of them is regular recruits and the other is the soldiers associated with the Agniveer scheme. The soldiers recruited under the Agniveer scheme have a service of only 4 years, after which 75 percent of the recruited soldiers will be retired, only 25 percent of the soldiers will be kept in the army. Now the question is whether Agniveer soldiers can get promotion and reach the rank of Major.
According to the information, the Agniveer soldiers who are recruited for 4 years do not get enough time to reach the rank of Major. An expert associated with the army said that it is not possible to reach the rank of Major in 4 years. However, the 25 percent of soldiers who will be recruited in the army after 4 years can reach the rank of Major after a few years. Usually it takes 4 to 6 years to reach the rank of Major.
Indian Army
According to the information, there are more than 10 lakh active soldiers in the Indian Army. The Indian Army is the fourth largest army in the world. But now on June 14, 2022, Agni Veer Scheme has been implemented by making a big change in the Indian Army. Under this scheme, 75 percent of the non-officer rank soldiers joining the Army, Navy and Air Service will serve for only 4 years. However, 25% of the soldiers recruited under this scheme are also given a chance to do full service. But now the question is what work will the Agniveer soldiers do after 4 years of service and where will they be recruited. Today we will tell you in which jobs Agniveer soldiers will get reservation.
Where to get reservation

CISF DG Neena Singh said that former Agniveers will be given priority in recruitment. BSF DG Nitin Agarwal said that all security forces will benefit from the recruitment of former Agniveers. He said that 10% of the vacant posts will be reserved for former Agniveers. CRPF DG Anish Dayal Singh also said that 10% reservation has been arranged for the recruitment of former Agniveers. He said that changes have also been made in the recruitment rules accordingly. Under the new rules, there will now be a fixed quota for former Agniveers.
Relaxation in age limit
Former Agniveer jawans will also get relaxation in age limit and physical test. CISF DG Neena Singh said that in the first batch, former Agniveers will get 5 years relaxation in age limit and in the second batch, 3 years relaxation. Officials say that former Agniveers will have four years of experience. This will make them fully disciplined and more trained.
