Mock Test: 20 Questions on Gender-Neutral Framework & Ex-Gratia Reforms
AI-generated representation of the Indian Coast Guard reforms: The visualization depicts the two landmark policy reforms unveiled by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on 28 July 2026 at Kartavya Bhavan-2, New Delhi. The first reform establishes a gender-neutral induction and career progression framework for officers, allowing women to join through both Short Service and Permanent Appointments on par with men. The second reform streamlines ex-gratia procedures for families of personnel missing at sea, enabling authorities to declare them "presumed dead" for compensation purposes. These reforms align with the government's commitment to Nari Shakti and equal opportunity ahead of the ICG's Golden Jubilee in 2027.
