India limita la extensión de dos años del Agnipath a los lotes actuales de Agniveer

El Ministerio de Defensa de la India informó el 6 de noviembre que la extensión de dos años del servicio para los Agniveer se aplicará solo a los nueve grupos ya en activo, mientras que los reclutas que ingresen después de diciembre de 2026 mantendrán el modelo original de cuatro años. El anuncio inicial lo hizo el jefe del Estado Mayor de la Defensa, quien señaló que los Agniveer que completaran su período de cuatro años podrían servir dos años más, con un 25 % elegible para incorporarse a las fuerzas regulares.

Posteriormente, el Gabinete Union aprobó un esquema que permite al 25 % de los Agniveer pasar a las fuerzas regulares tras cuatro años y extender el servicio de los demás en dos años bajo criterios objetivos. Más tarde, el Ministerio de Defensa confirmó que el programa Agnipath permitirá a todos los Agniveer elegibles incorporarse a las fuerzas regulares después de seis años, añadiendo una extensión de dos años para el 75 % y garantizando la protección de la antigüedad para los que sean absorbidos.
