Hello aspirant,

The central pool quota has many seats reserved for the wards of CAPFS. Based on the merit lists received from each force, a combined merit list is prepared and the same is sent to Central Selection committee. These seats are reserved for the following category (priority wise)-

1. Wards/Widow of those killed in action

2. Wards/Widows/Wives of personnel permanently disabled in action and boarded out from service

3. Wards of all Serving and retired personnel

IB personnel are only considered for priority 1 and 2.

Hope it helps!
