Will NDA exam be affected by Agneepath Scheme?

<p>On June 14, 2022, the Agneepath recruitment system was unveiled, giving young people the chance to enlist as Agniveers for a four-year term in the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force. Through Agneepath recruiting, candidates can join the armed forces between the ages of 17.5 and 21. One the other hand, the Union Public Service Commission administers the NDA Exam twice a year to qualified applicants who wish to enlist in the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Naval Academy. Young people who have completed their higher education are given the opportunity to enlist as Agniveers for a 4-year period each year through the Agneepath initiative. It's not the same as the NDA test. To put it simply, the NDA exam wouldn't be impacted bythe Agneepath Scheme.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Agnipath scheme is conducted for JCO entry whereas NDA exam is conducted for Officer entry. Agnipath scheme is restricted to the recruitment of soldiers. This is just a four-year scheme. NDA exam is conducted for permanent service commission. Therefore, NDA exam is not affected by Agneepath scheme. NDA exam is conducted by UPSC to select eligible candidates for admission to the Army, Navy and Air Force wings of NDA and Indian Naval Academy courses. Both male and female candidates are eligible to apply for the exam. Through NDA exam, candidates are selected as Commissioned Officers in armed forces. The selection process of NDA comprises written exam and SSB interview. The written exam is conducted for 900 marks and SSB interview carries 900 marks. The final merit list is prepared out of 1800.&nbsp;</p>
