SEATS FOR MILITARY NURSING SERVICE TO WIDOWS
SEATS FOR MILITARY NURSING SERVICE
TO WIDOWS
No: 2DBQ/Empol/CG1/2015
From
Zila
Sainik Welfare Officer
Sir,
Sub: Policy – Recommended allotment of seats for
Military Nursing Service to Widows;
Death Attributable to Military Service.
Qualified widows of soldiers whose “death is
attributable to military service” are earmarked, two vacancies for the Short Service
Commission(Women) entry scheme by exempting them appearing for written test and
directly nominating for Service Selection Board by Government of India. This
facility is fully utilized by the widows.
It
is recommended that similar provision of four seats be done for Military
Nursing Service selection by exempting the above category widows from written
test and directly calling them for interview and selection process. This will
benefit a good majority of widows, who are BSc nursing qualified.
The
matter may be taken up with appropriate higher authority for policy decision
and implementation.
