Haryana Announces 20% Job Reservation for Former Agniveer Recruits

The state of Haryana has moved to allocate a 20% reservation for individuals who served as Agniveers under the central Agnipath scheme. The decision, announced by the state administration, seeks to provide former recruits with preferential access to government posts. By earmarking this share of vacancies, Haryana aims to address concerns of Agniveers about post‑service employment opportunities. The policy will apply to all state‑run departments and agencies, though detailed implementation guidelines have yet to be released. Officials indicated that the reservation will be operational from the next recruitment cycle, pending necessary administrative orders.
