Dear, Sorry to say that "KNOCK-KNEE" persons are actually not fit for the jobs belongs to FORCE such as CPF (AC) , NDA, CDS, IPS etc., but they are also not categorized as Physically Challenged or Handicapped by the UPSC. Handicapped / Physically Challenged is based on the percentage of a persons inability to do his daily basic works. Since, "KNOCK-KNEE" personnel's are able to do their daily jobs as usual without any challenge, so they are not Physically Handicapped. Good Luck...
