Agniveers will be very useful: ITBP DG
Agniveers will prove to be «very useful» for the ITBP, which guards the Line of Actual Control between India and China, its top officer said on Friday.
All preparations have been made for the recruitment of these «well-trained and disciplined» soldiers, who will join the border force from the Army, ITBP DG Rahul Rasgotra said in a video message, posted by MHA on X.
As it is known, he said, the ITBP and Army personnel guard the India-China front and hence «these well-trained and disciplined Agniveers will prove to be very useful.» The DG said the force «believes that the joining of Agniveers will provide a new energy to the ITBP and the force will benefit from them.» The required amendment in ITBP recruitment rules has been issued by the MHA and they will be eligible for age and physical efficiency test relaxation, Rasgotra said.
