Over 45,000 posts are lying vacant in the Army, the Defence Minister <keyword id="6355121" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rajnath-Singh">Rajnath Singh</keyword> informed the Parliament on June 24. Of this, as many as 7,399 posts are for the commissioned ranks, as per data from January 2019, <a href="http://pib.nic.in/PressReleseDetail.aspx?PRID=1575742">according to PIB press release</a>. “Various reasons including accretions of posts from time to time, tough selection procedures, difficult service conditions coupled with perceived high risk involved in the services career and limitation in number that can be trained are responsible for the situation,” the minister said responding to a question by Shri Rakesh Sinhain of the Upper House, Rajya Sabha. The Army has conducted over 200 recruitment camps across the country, in the last three years. In 2019, 13 recruitment camps have been set up as of date and 80 are in the pipeline. “Recruitment in the army is a continuous process and vacancies are filled without compromising the quality of training,” <a href="http://pib.nic.in/PressReleseDetail.aspx?PRID=1575742">Rajnath Singh said</a>. To fill these posts and attract the right kind of candidates, the Defence ministry has also been spending on publicity to inspire youth to join the forces. In 2016-17, the ministry spent ₹37.887 million for publicity, whereas in 2017-18 is dipped down to ₹19.947 million. The publicity expenditure for 2018-19 was ₹21.619 million.

The recruitment process in the Indian Air Force under the Agnipath scheme will end on July 5. The IAF will recruit 3,000 Agniveers this year and their training is slated to begin from December 30, after exams and medical tests which will be held in two phases. This comes just a week after <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/india/news/coaching-centres-instigated-agnipath-violence-at-secunderabad-station-says-police-probe/articleshow/92329598.cms">violent protests</a> in various states that led to several trains being set on fire, and bundhs. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Protests are on, but have taken a non-violent turn" comment="subhead" text="Protests are on, but have taken a non-violent turn">Protests are on, but have taken a non-violent turn</cmsannotation> However, it is to be noted that the protests against the radical army recruitment scheme are still ongoing in Haryana, Punjab and West Bengal. The farmer unions of Punjab, along with members of Naujawan Bharat Sabha held protests in 90 places of the state against the scheme on Friday, June 24. They also submitted memorandums addressed to the President of India via the Sub-Divisional Magistrates (SDMs) and Deputy Commissioners (DCs) of their areas. “It is surprising that the government did not follow any minimum procedure before announcing such far-reaching changes. No pilot exercise of the new recruitment process was done anywhere. There was no discussion on these proposals before either Houses of Parliament or the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Defense Affairs,” the memorandum <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/ludhiana/agnipath-scheme-protests-farmers-punjab-unions-7989919/">read</a>. The memorandum also said that no consultations were held with stakeholders like army aspirants, serving jawans and officers, public representatives – all those who will be affected by the scheme. Thousands of farmers hit the streets of Haryana, called out by Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) and Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), to protest against the Agnipath scheme, on Friday. Several students, civil society organizations and members of trade unions also joined the protest. “A nationwide protest against the Agnipath scheme was observed by farmers’ bodies on Friday. Peaceful demonstrations were held and memorandums submitted at the district and block headquarters. Similar protests were organized in Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal Uttarakhand, Tamil Nadu, Chhattisgarh, and other states,” <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/gurgaon/haryana-farmers-hit-the-streets-in-agnipath-protest/articleshow/92447021.cms">said</a> Krantikari Kisan Union leader Darshan Pal. According to media reports, protests in the Gurgaon region have been scheduled for today, Monday, June 27.

 The recruitment rally will be conducted at Ambala, Lucknow, Jabalpur, Bangalore and Shillong. Once the registration of candidates is over, a cut off list will be generated for further rounds of selection, according to the official notification. So far the Indian army recruited women only as officers and not as soldiers, making this move significant. The Indian army has put it out on its official website (joinindianarmy.nic.in.) notifying openings for the post of Soldier General Duty. The application process starts today, and will end on 8 June, 2019. In order to qualify for the post, the women candidates need to qualify a Common Entrance Exam post which they will have to appear for the Physical Endurance Test(PET). Information on the complete selection and application procedure <a href="http://joinindianarmy.nic.in/writereaddata/Portal/BRAVO_NotificationPDF/AMDT_RALLY_NOTFN-_WOMEN_MP.pdf">here</a>. Separately, the Defence Ministry has been taking necessary initiatives to boost women empowerment. Recently, the Indian government <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/after-air-force-indian-army-open-to-permanent-commissions-for-women/articleshow/68279717.cms">announced</a> that the women officers can get permanent commissions in the armed forces.
