Congress Will Stop Agniveer Scheme, Says Mallikarjun Kharge
Ahead of the Lok Sabha polls in the country, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge lashed out at the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led centre saying that there is a lot of anger and strong opposition among the youth of the country regarding the Agniveer scheme.
He said that wherever the BJP ministers of the PM Modi government are going, they have to say that they will reconsider this, and make changes and improvements.
"You wake up early in the morning and do rigorous physical and mental preparations so that you can serve Mother India," he slammed.
Kharge called the Agniveer scheme an insult to the youth's hard work," Kharge said, as quoted by news agency ANI. He stated, "Agniveer Yojana has kept the value of your service for only 4 years. This is not only an insult to your hard work, it is also a breach of national security."
"Congress Party will stop the Agniveer scheme imposed by Modi government. This is Congress' guarantee to the courageous youth of the country," he ensured.
