NDA

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.
