Congress News: Debate has started once again in the country regarding Agniveer Yojana. Congress said that we will not allow Agniveer to become a private army. He further said that the coffers of capitalist friends are being filled by cutting pensions.
Congress News: After the retirement of Agniveer, it is being said that he will be included in the top 10 private security agencies of the country. On this, Congress on Tuesday targeted the Center regarding an alleged notification of the Home Ministry. Congress said that when the Central Government had promised that they would be given pensionable government jobs, then why were they being sent to such agencies. There was no immediate response from the government on Congress’s claims. Congress’ ex-servicemen department president Colonel (retd) Rohit Chaudhary said that if the Modi government could not encourage the soldiers who performed well during Operation Sindoor, then they too should not have been cheated.
less trained soldiers are being given
The Congress leader said that Rahul Gandhi has been continuously saying that the country is being given less trained soldiers and the Modi government is filling the coffers of its capitalist friends by cutting the pension of the soldiers. Modi government had promised that we will give jobs to agricultural workers after retirement. But now the Home Ministry has issued a notification stating that the retiring Agriveers will be given employment in the top 10 private security agencies of the country. At the same time, Congress shared the alleged notification issued by the Home Ministry, in which it has been said that the department has further informed that in view of the huge recruitment in security agencies, the top 10 private security provider agencies can be sensitized to appoint Agniveer.
Promised to include in state jobs
Taking aim at the Central Government, Rohit Choudhary said that when the promise was made to provide pensionable jobs to Agniveers and to include them in Central and State jobs, then why are they being sent to private security agencies today. He asked when the fire fighters will be given pensionable jobs. At the same time, we cannot allow the Agniveers to be converted into a private army and to be thrown into wars within the country and abroad. Our Jai Jawan campaign is continuing and we will continue to raise questions in the interest of the soldiers. He further said that we all are committed that the Agniveer scheme is fatal for the security of the country and the youth, it should be ended at any cost.
