Explanation
According to the Agneepath Scheme and the subsequent notification by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), Agniveers are provided with specific benefits for recruitment into Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), including the CISF.
- Age Relaxation: For the first batch of Agniveers, an age relaxation of 5 years is granted beyond the prescribed upper age limit. Subsequent batches receive a 3-year relaxation.
- Base Age Limit: For direct recruitment into various CAPF entry-level posts (specifically Sub-Inspector or Assistant Commandant levels relevant to this exam grade), the standard upper age limit is 25 years.
Calculation: Adding the 5-year relaxation for the first batch to the base limit of 25 years results in a maximum age of 30 years (25 + 5). While the candidate completes their service at age 25 (21 + 4), they remain eligible to be recruited by CISF until they reach the age of 30.
