About MES

The Military Engineer Services (MES), which was raised in 1923, is one of the pillars of the Corps of Engineers of the Indian Army which provides rear-line engineering support to the Armed Forces. It is one of the largest construction and maintenance agencies in India. It has a large number of units and subunits spread across the entire country to provide engineering support to various formations of the Army, Air Force, Navy, Ordinance Factories, KV Sangathan, Border Road Organisation, and DRDO. MES is a military organization but has both Army and Civilian components of officers and other subordinate staff. While the execution of all construction works is through contracts, the execution of all maintenance services is both through contracts as well as departmentally employed labor (DEL). The role of MES is dual i.e. to render both engineering advice and also to execute the works. The Military Engineering Services are responsible for the design, construction, and maintenance of all works, buildings, airfields, dock installations, etc. along with necessary services such as military roads, bulk water and electricity supply, drainage, refrigeration, and furniture, required by the Army, Navy and Air Force in India. The MES functions under the overall control of the Engineer-in-Chief, who is the adviser to the Ministry of Defence and the three Services on operational and peacetime construction engineering. Engineer-in-Chief of MES is assisted by six Command Chief Engineers which further oversee 31 Zonal Chief Engineers and each zone is further divided into CWEs and independent GEs. To know more about MES Recruitment, vacancies, syllabus, and more refer to the full article.
