Bhaderwah, Oct 22 (KINS): The Indian Army conducted a career outreach programme at Government Degree College (GDC), Bhaderwah, on October 21 to guide young people about career opportunities in the armed forces.

The interactive session aimed to help students understand the eligibility criteria, selection process and career opportunities in the armed forces.
The Army also cautioned aspiring candidates against fraud and clarified that recruitment is completely free, transparent and based on merit. Students were advised not to fall prey to touts or anyone promising selection in exchange for money.
