Candidates must have passed the high school examination with at least 45% marks.

A minimum of 33% marks in each subject is required.

Chief Minister Dhami said that in recognition of Uttarakhand's proud military tradition, the government is taking this initiative to enable the state's youth to contribute to the military under the Agniveer scheme. He also stated that the state government has decided to provide Agniveers with reservations in government jobs after completing their service.
