Ayodhya, 05 Aug (HS): The
Agniveer Recruitment Rally organized by Army Recruiting Office (ARO) Amethi
commenced today at the Dogra Regimental Ground, Ayodhya Cantt, with vibrant
participation from candidates belonging to Amethi and Kaushambi districts. This
rally, conducted for thirteen districts of Uttar Pradesh, is a joint effort
between the Indian Army and civil administration, reflecting a shared
commitment to provide golden opportunities to aspiring youth across the region.
Brigadier Swarn Singh, DDG Recruiting (States), Headquarters Recruiting Zone
(UP & UK), was present to witness the beginning of the rally. His presence
and motivating words inspired the candidates to give their best and reinforced
the rally’s mission of merit-based and transparent selection.

These youth have already cleared their Online Common Entrance Exam (CEE) and
arrived with great enthusiasm, prepared to demonstrate their fitness,
discipline, and determination. The rally’s arrangements were meticulously
managed through the coordinated efforts of military and civil authorities.
Ground logistics, water distribution, medical assistance, and entry management
were executed with precision—ensuring safety and efficiency for all
participating candidates. This jointmanship has strengthened public trust in
the conduct of recruitment and highlighted the professionalism of all
organizers involved.
Candidates
underwent physical fitness tests including a 1.6 km run, zig-zag balance, ditch
jump, and chin-ups, followed by physical measurements and document
verification. Participants were reminded throughout the day to stay vigilant
and not fall prey to touts or misinformation. Army rallies are designed to be
completely fair and transparent, and every individual is evaluated solely on
merit. The atmosphere at the rally ground remained electric, filled with hope
and pride. Candidates marched forward in well-formed groups, echoing a shared
spirit of service. The enthusiasm displayed today marks the beginning of a
promising journey for many, with the Indian Army standing ready to welcome its
next generation of Agniveers.
The successful
execution of today’s rally was made possible through the dedicated support of
the Ayodhya civil administration, whose collaboration helped uphold both
discipline and dignity on the field. With this momentum, the rally will
continue in the coming days, welcoming youth from the remaining districts with
the same commitment to fairness and opportunity.
