Indian Army Chief Gen Manoj Pande on Thursday called the `Agnipath` scheme a "path-breaking" manpower intake methodology and asserted that it will ensure the youthful profile of the armed forces.
Under the Agnipath scheme, which was introduced in 2022, soldiers are enrolled as Agniveers by the armed forces for four years. They can then go back to society and take up jobs in other sectors to pursue a career of their choice.
