In addressing the reservation of ex-servicemen, MoS Bhatt stated that it is governed by the ex-servicemen (Re-employment in Central Civil Services and Posts) Rules, 1979. He stated that all Group C and Group D Central Civil Services and Posts, as well as posts up to the level of Assistant Commandant in all Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) such as Border Security Force (BSF), Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP), Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB), and Central Industrial Security Force, will be reserved (CISF).


Because employment in Rajya Sainik Boards falls under the purview of the concerned State Government, the reservation provision will also apply to state-government recruitment. The government is improving employment opportunities for ex-servicemen through a variety of initiatives, including pre and post-retirement training and awareness programmes, as well as appropriate training.
