Exciting News for Aspiring Candidates: The Indian Army is set to conduct the Agniveer Recruitment Rally from November 8 to November 21, 2025, at the Ranbankure Ground located in Varanasi Cantonment. Numerous candidates are expected to participate in various physical tests and related activities during this period. Colonel Shailesh Kumar, the Director of the Recruitment Office, announced that admit cards have been dispatched to candidates' registered email addresses. Additionally, these admit cards will be accessible online starting from October 27. Candidates who do not receive their admit card via email can download it from the official website – www.joinindianarmy.nic.in.


Important Admit Card Guidelines:
It is crucial to note that only a color printout of the admit card will be accepted. If candidates do not receive their admit card online, they should reach out to the Army Recruitment Office by October 31. Candidates must arrive at the recruitment venue by 2:30 AM on their designated date, bringing a passport-sized photo attached to the admit card.


Required Documents for the Rally:
While attending the rally, candidates are required to present several documents, including their admit card, a passport-sized color photograph, academic certificates, residence proof, caste and religion certificates, character certificates from both the police and school, a character certificate from the village head or municipal corporation, an unmarried certificate, a certificate confirming the relationship with their father, and copies of their PAN and Aadhaar cards. Additionally, three verification copies of each document must be submitted. Candidates with NCC or sports certificates should also carry them. For further inquiries, candidates can contact the recruitment office during working hours.


Physical Test Structure:
The physical test format has undergone modifications this time. The time limit for the 1600-meter race for Agniveer recruitment has been extended to 6 minutes and 15 seconds, up from the previous limit of 5 minutes and 45 seconds. The race will be divided into four groups, with points awarded based on performance.


Point Distribution for the Race:



  • Group 1: Complete the race in 5 minutes 30 seconds for 60 points; 10 pull-ups earn 40 points.


  • Group 2: Complete the race in 5 minutes 45 seconds for 48 points; 9 pull-ups earn 33 points.


  • Group 3: Complete the race in 6 minutes for 36 points; 8 pull-ups earn 27 points.

According to the Army Recruiting Director, these adjustments aim to ensure that qualified candidates for roles such as Technician, Trade, and Office Assistant are not eliminated from the selection process due to time constraints. The recruitment system is being enhanced for transparency, allowing more capable youth to join the Indian Army and serve the nation.
