Best of Luck For Territorial Army Exam
final year student of b.tech can apply for this...
ReplyDeleteEligibility:Gainfully Employed in Central Govt/Semi
DeleteGovt/ Pvt Firm/ Own business/Self Employed
so if you want to apply for this you have to be employed in any sector..
Any way If you want to face this exam you can apply as a self employed.
if i apply as a self employed this is help only facing the exam or nothing and other process like PIB etc
DeleteSelf employed candidates are required to submit an Affidavit on Non-Judicial stamp paper of minimum value duly attested stating nature of self employment and income earned annually.
DeleteIn PIB you have to write your income is less than 2 lakh (not taxable)..
and a Affidavit non judiciary stamp paper you get this easily from a lawyer.
so worry about this go ahead ,best of luck..
iti passed students can apply for this.....
