Gurkha recruitment

Gurkha recruitment refers to the process of enlisting soldiers from Nepal, known for their bravery and loyalty, into the British Army and Indian Army. The traditional ties between the British military and the Gurkha people date back to the early 19th century. Gurkhas are highly regarded for their discipline, skills, and unique fighting techniques, particularly with the kukri, a traditional knife. Recruitment involves strict criteria, including physical fitness and psychological assessments, ensuring that only the best candidates serve in these elite regiments, which continue to play a vital role in various military operations worldwide.
