Active duty refers to a full-time occupation as part of a military force, as opposed to reserve duty.
The Indian Armed Forces are considered to be one of the largest active service forces in the world with almost 1.32 million Active Standing Army due to the complex and volatile nature of India's neighborhood and the ongoing Kashmir insurgencies. At least 500,000-700,000 troops from the armed forces are stand-by in Jammu & Kashmir to neutralize for any threats. An additional 1.15 million reserve forces can be activated in a few weeks as per the situation under the order of the President of India who is the Commander and Chief of the Armed Forces of India. This does not include the additional 1.30 million troops of the Paramilitary who too are an active force whose full time responsibility is to guard the sovereignty of the nation from internal and external threats.
In the Israel Defense Forces, there are two types of active duty: regular service (Hebrew: שרות סדיר, Sherut Sadir), and active reserve duty (Hebrew: שרות מילואים פעיל Sherut Milu'im Pa'il, abbr. Shamap). Regular service refers to either mandatory service (Hebrew: שרות חובה, Sherut Hova), according to the laws of Israel, or standing army service (Hebrew: שרות קבע, Sherut Keva), which consists of paid NCOs and officers.
