The Indian Army will hold an Agniveer recruitment rally at the Government College of Art and Sports in Jalandhar from 14 to 22 November 2026. More than 6,000 candidates are expected to participate. Eligible candidates from the districts of Tarn Taran, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Hoshiarpur, and Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar (SBS Nagar) who have passed the Common Entrance Examination (CEE) can attend. The rally will also allow eligible female candidates from Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh to join the Indian Army. The rally is part of the Agneepath scheme for recruitment of Agniveers.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The rally opens a recruitment window for thousands of young people in Punjab and the union territories. The 14 November start date gives candidates from the listed districts time to prepare. The inclusion of female candidates from Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh broadens the recruitment base. What remains unspecified is the total number of vacancies to be filled through this rally and the selection criteria beyond the CEE qualification.
