WHAT IS AGNIPATH ENTRY SCHEME?
Agnipath Entry Scheme
The Agnipath entry scheme or Tour of Duty entry scheme, is a proposal by the central government, which would allow youngsters to join forces as soldiers for a period of three years. The scheme is part of PM Narendra Modi's reform toward reducing expenditure and the age profile of the defence forces.
While the scheme has not been officially announced yet, however, if confirmed, the soldiers enlisted in forces under the Tour of Duty entry scheme will be called 'Agniveers' (fire warriors) during their three-year stint.
