In a first, Army puts Agniveers to test to assess mental abilities

IndiaTimes Saturday, 25 November 2023
The Indian Army has started for the first time a psychometric test for Agniveer candidates on a trial basis, doing so at a recruitment rally in Pune a few days ago. The test aims to assess their mental capabilities, behaviour and personality traits. β€œIt (the test) is in a primitive stage. It has not become a formal mandate for the Agniveer recruitment process yet,” Lt Gen NS Sarna, Director-General of Recruiting, told TOI on Saturday. The Defence Institute of Psychological Research (DIPR) of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed the test.
