Agnipath Recast: All Willing Agniveers Get Route to Permanent Military Service

BY Uday India

The Union Cabinet has approved a significant restructuring of the Agnipath recruitment scheme, opening the door for all willing and eligible Agniveers to secure permanent enrolment in the Defence Forces. The decision marks a major shift in the original recruitment framework, under which only 25 per cent of Agniveers were to be retained in the regular forces after completing four years of service, while the remaining 75 per cent had to leave. Under the revised arrangement, the mandatory exit provision has effectively been removed, giving those aspiring for a long-term military career an opportunity to enter regular service after completing an extended six-year engagement.
