It is easy to join para special force or not?
Hello,
Parachute regiment comprises of Para and Para(SF)battalions which are the Elite forces of Indian Army.
It is not easy to become a paratrooper. The paratroopers undergo through tough selection procedures, rigorous training to achieve the status of being the 'bravest of the brave'.
Candidates have to score 100% marks in physical fitness test and atleast 50% marks in written test . So obviously one has to endure a lot of physical tasks to score the elusive 100% marks in fitness test.
Following are the standards for physical tests-
• 5Km run - 20 mins
• Chin Up - 14
• Push Up - 40 reps in 1 minute.
• Sit Up- 80 reps in 2 minute
• Mtr shuttle - 17 times in 1 minutes.
So it's very much obvious that you have to be in your best physical level to fulfil the above physical standards.
Thank you.
