# Strengthening the Civil-Military Synergy for Agniveer Rallies in Uttarakhand #
In a significant engagement to bolster the Agniveer recruitment drive, Maj Gen Manish Kumar, YSM, SM**, Additional Director General (ADG) of the Recruiting Zone (UP & Uttarakhand) held a comprehensive discussion with Mr Anand Bardhan, Chief Secretary of Uttarakhand in presence of Mr Shailesh Bagauli, Secretary Home at the State Secretariat in Dehradun. The meeting focused on further strengthening the collaborative framework to ensure seamless conduct of recruitment rallies slated to commence soon for the recruiting year 2027.
Given that Zonal Recruiting Office (UP & UK) oversees the largest recruitable population, the discourse underscored the vital importance of civil-military cooperation. As the Army reaches out to the far-flung districts of the
state, especially in the hilly areas, the role of local administration remains central to managing logistics, infrastructure and management of the large turnout of aspirants at the various rally locations in the State.
During the interaction, the ADG emphasized that the mission goes beyond mere selection as it is a shared endeavor to ignite the patriotic spirit of the youth. One of the crucial objectives discussed was to encourage more participation from women candidates of Uttarakhand to serve in the Armed Forces.
ADG also conveyed the Army's appreciation for sound administrative support provided by the state during the conduct of CEE held in Jun 2026. The State Administration reaffirmed its commitment to continuing with the steadfast support, recognizing that today’s recruits are the future defenders of the nation.

⭕❌ # FACT CHECK REGARDING LATE NB SUB SARWAN SINGH: SPORTING HERO OF MANILA ASIAN GAMES 1954 #
1. It has come to notice that certain social media posts are circulating regarding Late Nb Sub Sarwan Singh, alleging that despite his sterling performance and Gol Medal win in 110 m hurdles at Manila 1954 Asian Games, he was destitute and denied pensionary benefits by the Indian Army.
False claims are circulating that an Asian Games "Gold-medallist" JCO was left destitute by the Army.
Here are the verified facts:
1. Retired as Nb Sub on 03 Jan 1970, with all retirement benefits.
2. His pension was revised subsequently with every successive Central Pay Commission. Last drawn BASIC pension was Rs 37,000/- per month (dearness relief extra as applicable).
3. His wife had expired in 2015.
4. He drew full pension till his death on 06 May 2021.
5. Only surviving Son is 61 yrs old - not eligible to draw as per rules.
Conclusion : Claims on social media of Army denying him his dues are 100% FALSE and motivated, with questionable intent/ just to garner views and likes.
Request: Please do not share unverified posts that malign the Organisation and hurt Veterans' morale.
Jai Hind 🇮🇳
