Army Refutes Rahul Gandhi on Death of Agniveer, But Should the Scheme be Scrapped I Barkha Dutt

#rahulgandhi #modi #agniveer
In his speech on July 1, during the Motion of Thanks to the President’s address in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi called the Agnipath scheme for recruitment in the armed forces a “use and throw” scheme that differentiates heavily between a permanent soldier and those temporarily recruited as Agniveers.
Defence minister Rajnath Singh intervened to say that Gandhi’s allegations were false and that the government provides Rs 1 crore compensation to families of Agniveer soldiers who die in the line of duty.
On July 3, Gandhi posted a video on X in which he said that the defence minister had lied to parliament about this compensation. The video then showed a clip of Ajay Kumar’s father telling Gandhi earlier that while the Punjab government has given the family some money, the “Central government gave them nothing.” The video also shows Kumar’s father reacting to Rajnath Singh’s compensation claim in the Lok Sabha. He says, “We received neither any message, nor any money.”
Hours later, the Indian Army’s spokesperson posted on X, saying that they wished to clarify that “Of the total amount due, family of Agniveer Ajay has already been paid Rs 98.39 lakhs.”
Is Ministry Passing Off Insurance as Govt Payment?

By the opposition’s behavior in both the houses the country clearly saw MODI 3.0 and Pappu 2.0

Yash mor guy is a loose cannot, but i believe agniveer should be there for ias as well.

[@letsthink1991]

Its not a political football its an issue that needs to be discussed. It is the Govt of the day which takes decisions and it is the opposition that scrutinise such decisions and see if it is good or bad. So to make everything apolitical as if politics doesn’t affect anything is frankly stupid. The same like was adopted for lokpal debate and we all know where that went. Rest assured Agniveer needs to be scrapped for economics alone cannot decide the kind of defence we have to have. Agniveer is truly a stupid scheme and it truly needs to go!

Lying in the parliament is not a way to do it. Pappu proved once again that Pappu tho Pappu is rehenga!!

[@raviu7800]

Shame on a big liar Rahul.

[@harishlodha5366]

It is proved beyond doubt that Baal Buddhi Pappu aka Rahul Gandhi lied in LS & outside. Congress discribed Army Chief as Sadak Ka Gunda!!

[@TJ-wo1xt]

Ohh pls every organization transforms, even the military should transform. Yes agniveer can be amended. I still don't understand why the army and air Force love foreign toys instead of giving mass orders for local equipment. The first iteration is always mediocre. Only repeated iteration improves a system.
