Those enrolled in Enrolling in this system must undergo periodic medical examinations, in addition to physical/written/field tests as per order.Protests erupted in different parts of the country after some military hopefuls were unhappy with changes introduced under the new recruiting program. 
Concerns were raised about length of service, lack of pension schemes for early redundancies and the age limit of 17.5 to 21 mentioned above. 
The Army said that based on the organization's requirements and guidelines, Agniveers will be offered the opportunity to apply for enlistment in the regular squad upon completion of their time in each group. 
"These applications will be centrally reviewed by the Army based on objective criteria, including performance during their enlistment period, and no more than 25 percent of each specific group of Agniveers will be enrolled in regular cadres upon completion of their four-year enlistment period," it said in the document released by the Army."Agniveers enrolled in this way as regular cadres must complete an additional 15-year commitment period and are subject to current service conditions (for junior officers/other ranks)," he said.

According to the document. Each Agniveer must formally agree to all of the Agnipath program terms and conditions as part of the enrollment process. 
For personnel under the age of 18, the registration form must be signed by a legal guardian.The "agniveers" are entitled to 30 days of annual leave compared to 90 days for those on regular duty. Sick leave is granted on medical advice. 
The army said 30 percent of Agniveer's monthly salary will be compulsorily deposited in a corpus and the government will contribute an equal amount.
