Congress criticizes Modi Government’s ‘Agnipath Scheme’ for Indian Army
New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, criticized the BJP-Led Modi Government’s Agnipath scheme, aimed at recruiting armed forces.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the Congresss leader labeled the scheme as a ploy to manipulate India’s military establishment for political gains.
Expressing disapproval, Gandhi emphasized that the Agnipath scheme is not a gesture of support for the Indian Army but rather a cunning strategy by the Modi administration.
He went on to denounce the scheme as an insult to the aspirations of courageous young individuals who aspire to serve and protect their nation.
Congress leaders echoed Gandhi’s sentiments, strongly opposing the Agnipath scheme. They vowed to dismantle it and ensure comprehensive economic and social security for the armed forces once Congress assumes power.
Furthermore, Gandhi disclosed disturbing details, alleging that funds allocated for soldiers’ pensions are being diverted to Adani Defense, a revelation that sparked outrage among critics. He pointed out that the Adani Group intends to collaborate with American and Israeli companies, utilizing resources from the Agnipath scheme.
