Reading: I served in the Indian Army for over 5 years and was discharged in 2007. I joined the Andhra Pradesh State Police Department in 2012, claiming age relaxation as a Non-Ex-serviceman based on the notification allowing service in the army to be considered. My probation was completed in 2014. Now, the department says I used a Non-Ex-serviceman certificate to secure a job in the Ex-serviceman quota. What should I do? 1. Am I eligible for age relaxation based on my military service? 2. Is there a provision to allow a Non-Ex-serviceman to fill a position if a suitable Ex-serviceman isn’t available? 3. How can I ensure my job security?

You are not eligible for age relaxation as you were discharged before joining the police department. There is no provision to allow a non-ex-serviceman to fill a position in the ex-serviceman quota even if a suitable ex-serviceman is not available. You should consult a lawyer immediately to explore legal options and protect your job security.
