Starts from 09 March-31 March 2022
A pre Recruitment Rally training is being organised by the Indian Army for the youth of Gurez from 09 March- 31 March 2022, in order to ensure maximum selection rate of Gurezis in the upcoming recruitment rallies.
A total of 153 youth registered themselves for the training and after deliberate scrutiny of documents and thorough medical check up only 54 candidates were found fit and are presently being trained by the Indian Army personnel for their physical and written examinations.
The instructors training the youth said that the josh and dedication of the selected candidates is extraordinary and they are working very hard to achieve their goal. This initiative has come as a ray of hope for the youth of the valley who are presently employed as porters and daily wage workers with the Army. Selection of youth in the Indian Army will not only provide financial stability to their whole family but will also strengthen the Army-Civilian bond in the entire valley.
Many more youth who are interested to join the training and were unable to register due to the closure of Bandipora-Gurez road are now approaching the Army for the training and a second batch for training is being planned in the month of April.
