  • on account of physical disability attributable to Military Service.
  • on invalidment.

    Upto a maximum of five years in the case of SSCOs who have completed an initial period of assignment of five years Military Service as on 1st August, and whose assignment has been extended beyond five years and in whose case the Ministry of Defence issues a certificate that they can apply for civil employment and that they will be released on three month's notice on selection from the date of receipt of offer of appointment.

    The term ex-servicemen will apply to the persons who are defined as ex-servicemen in the Ex- Servicemen (Re-employment in Civil Services and Posts) Rules, 1979, as amended from time to time. The age concession will not be admissible to Ex-Servicemen and Commissioned Officers including SSCOs who are released on own request.

    Comments: The MOD and Defence Authorities should encourage Short Service Commissioned Officers, more especially the women officers to apply for the Indian Civil Service competitive examinations. This measure will boost the morale of Short Service Commissioned Officers. There is also a need for additional concessions for personnel from Military who seek a second career in the Civil Services.
