After detailed deliberations on the matter, a policy has now been formulated to provide reservation for ex-Agniveers in various state services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A letter in this regard has been issued by Chief Secretary Sh. Anurag Rastogi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to this policy, ex-Agniveers will get 1 percent horizontal reservation in Group-B posts related to skill expertise, and 5 percent in Group-C posts (excluding some specified categories). In the Home Department, 20 percent reservation will be given for the posts of Police Constables. Similarly, 10 percent reservation has been fixed for the posts of Forest Guard in the Environment, Forest and Wildlife Department, Warder in the Jail Department, and Mining Guard in the Mines and Geology Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure fair distribution among all social categories, reservation will be applied at fixed roster points. Selection will be purely on the basis of merit, and ex-Agniveers will be selected against reserved posts within their respective vertical categories. If suitable ex-Agniveers are not available, the vacant posts will be filled by eligible candidates of the concerned category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government has also decided that during recruitment for the posts of Police Constable, Forest Guard, Jail Warder, and Mining Guard, ex-Agniveers will be exempted from the Physical Efficiency Test, since their physical fitness and military training are already certified. In addition, ex-Agniveers are already exempted from the Common Eligibility Test (CET) for Group-C recruitments. They will also be exempted from skill-related tests for which they have received training during their military service. However, they will be required to appear in the written examination prescribed by the Haryana Staff Selection Commission for the advertised posts. This exemption will be applicable when they apply in response to advertisements issued by the Commission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chandigarh, August 20 \u2013 The Haryana Government has decided to provide the benefit of horizontal reservation in direct recruitment to resident ex-Agniveers of the state.
