A much-needed step. My uncle retired from the army last year and faced difficulties finding a suitable second career. These fairs should be held more frequently, not just in major cities but also in smaller towns.

While the effort is commendable, I hope the jobs offered are meaningful and not just limited to security guard positions. These men and women have technical expertise in engineering, logistics, and healthcare that should be properly utilized.

Good to see 18 fairs planned across India. The discipline and problem-solving skills of our armed forces personnel are unmatched. Corporates would be lucky to have them. All the best to all the participants!
