It is known that the central government introduced the Agnipath scheme in June 2022. They have to serve as fire fighters for four years. After the end of that period, they are recruited in the central paramilitary forces on the basis of reservation. As part of this process, 10 percent reservation was previously allocated to fire fighters in all the central armed police forces in the constable vacancies

However, in the latest notification released by the Center, the reservation for firefighters has been increased from 10 to 50 percent only in BSF recruitment. According to the current rules, former firefighters are exempted from the physical fitness test. But they will have to pass the written test.  (Maxim News)
