Haryana Expands Horizontal Reservation for Ex-Agniveers in Government Jobs
The Haryana government has introduced horizontal reservations for ex-Agniveers in government recruitment, including 20% in key posts like police constables and forest guards, 5% in other Group-C posts, and 1% in Group-B posts related to skill specialization. The reservations are distributed across categories such as Scheduled Castes, Backward Classes, Economically Weaker Sections, and unreserved groups. These measures aim to recognize military service skills and enhance employment opportunities for ex-Agniveers in the state.
