Applicants have to first register themselves on the official website. However, before registration, they must first see if they’re eligible for the Jagriti Yatra. In order to be eligible for it, you must be at least 30 years of age or above.

The selection of a candidate is done based on the abilities they demonstrate rather than marks from any exams. This also means that the process is more merit-based and skill-based.

This application form consists of multiple essay-type questions and answers. The applicants must also pay a nominal fee of ₹100 as registration fees. Their application will then be processed. If the candidature passes this first step, they will then be briefly interviewed via telephone to further verify their candidacy. Then, based on the application and the telephone interview, the jury will decide if you’re eligible to go for the Jagriti Yatra.
