Addressing a press conference at Pangode Military Station, Major General P Ramesh, Additional Director General Recruiting (States), said according to the new selection procedure of Army Agniveer Recruitment, the candidate will undergo Common Entrance Exam first instead of physical tests.

“There is no change in the syllabus and pattern of the exam,” he added.

“The process will become more streamlined, simpler for candidates to appear and is in synchronised with current technological advancement of the country.”

The changed procedure will focus on enhanced cognitive aspects during recruitment and will result in wider and better outreach across the country, he said.

The Major General advised the candidates not to fall prey to touts as they cannot help them in any way. The recruitment into the Indian Army remains completely unbiased, impartial and merit based, he clarified.
