Why People are not joining Indian Army?

In India army, one won't get too high salary which he can get in a corporate world. Moreover, he always has risk of life since these days, terrorist activities has increased a lot. Because of all these problems, people tend to move towards corporate sector where they can get more salary with less risk of life. Government should increase the salary of officers to stop leaving them and to pull more and more people in the army.

it's the other way round ...

kids lack OLQ , UNABLE TO CLEAR SSB BATTERY TESTS..

army need dare devil officers , not employees to fill posts ..

People just wanna have a casual life style with their family and friends. That doesn mean in ARMY one cannot have friends.

But the Rules and regulations need to be altered a bit. Its too long/lengthy dedication in terms of the no of years of service . Even though the facilities provided are acceptable but salary still is old.

When the whole lifestyle is going online, ex: GIS/remote sensing can play a major role, then army should be thinking of much more technologies which can reduce the pressure/risk of life. 

The reasons for people not joining Indian Army may be lack of pay, risk to life, political interference etc., But I feel that, at school and college level the educational institutions are not encouraging the students. The govt should pass a GO that, each and every school compulsarly maintain a NCC batch and should develop neccesary infrastrure.

Many people use army and other government jobs, merely a tool to fulfil their own self interest. For example, in recession time, few friends of mine joined the army not only to get a job but by getting a government job, there won't be any tension of job security. Moreover, If they leave the job and join corporate world, they will be considered as ex-army man and will get all the facility an army man gets. He also will be getting pensions which would add to his "extra income" of his corporate salary.

Actually dere r a lot of young ones wanna join army including me ho attended several SSB's bt failed evrytym b'coz of lack of desired physical standards by IA. This play a major role b'coz we've been taught tht study is evrything evn smtyms bigger than phy fitness. Hence we gt knowledge, aptitude, reasoning ability bt on the cost of our physical fitness.Also Army jobs r very demanding so dey want the bst ppl in bussiness n still smhow dey pay dem less.this add up to the problem neither they wanna lower dere standards n dey shudn't be.  

It may sound idealistic & I am too small a person to say this but in between what we call a rat race the truth we have to admit that we are thinking of what country has going to give us whereas we all we know that amidst terrorism, naxals, Pak & all, our country is seriously facing this problem.

I don't know its our excuses of being paid low or risk of life holds correct or the spirit of those dynamic officers there at borders, who have put their lives on stake !!!!
