After more than a decade and half of duty, they will enter the next phase as Gyalsung Reservists and become Gyalzurs. By the time the first cohort become Reservists, there will be nearly 200,000 Gyalsups with active-duty obligations. Therefore, the Reservists will have the obligation to volunteer their services only in exceptional situations if the sizable pool of Gyalsups is deemed inadequate. They can still be mandatorily mobilized in the event of national emergencies. But as Reservists, their mandatory obligations are foreseen only in critical national emergency situations.


They will remain as Reservists till the age of forty-five years after which they can choose to transition to become De-suups or Guardians of Peace.
