Claims that Agniveer’s examination forced youth to eat poison

IndiaClaims that Agniveer's examination forced youth to eat poison

Allegedly, Agniveer’s examination forced the youth to eat poison and Congress vows to stop Agniveer if voted into power.

The distress of the youth when the Agniveer scheme was announced was seen in the nation with the youth burning trains and buses, all worked up in a frenzy because those who dreamt of serving in the Indian Army would now be just given a few years as fighters in a very low-grade system and then dismissed.

There are horrific stories circulating that Agniveer’s examination forced the youth to eat poison.

A citizen tweeted, “The truth of Agniveer’s examination forced the youth to eat poison. Nothing can be worse than this. To be investigated and to believe in this government is like lying to onesel”  The matter will need investigation.

Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday in Himachal Pradesh said the recruitment of Agniveer will stop when Congress comes to power at the Centre.  She said this at a large public meeting in support of the Congress candidate R S Bali while addressing a Parivartan Pratigya rally at Nagrota Bagwan in Kangra district.

She also said that the Congress party is eager to waive off the loans of farmers. She added that wherever there is a Congress government, farmers’ loans have been waived. Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said former Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh has shown the track and former Transport G S Bali also helped the farmers in the right perspective.

She said both these leaders helped the people of Himachal Pradesh. She said Congress is campaigning and BJP is celebrating the rebels. She said amid applause she knew that the people of Himachal Pradesh want change.

Priyanka said the BJP government has drowned Himachal Pradesh in debt of Rs.70000 crore and this burden has shaken the state. Earlier, Priyanka Gandhi paid obeisance at one of the 52 Shakti peeths at Jawalamukhi Friday.

This was the second public meeting of Priyanka Gandhi after the announcement of elections in Himachal. Earlier on October 31, Priyanka had addressed a public meeting in Mandi. Before the announcement of the election, Priyanka had concocted the Parivartan Pratigya rally from Solan.

After Nagrota, on November 7, Priyanka will also hold a public meeting in Hamirpur parliamentary constituency the home district of Union Minister Anurag Thakur.

Today, in the rally of Nagrota Bagwan, Congress workers from 15 assembly constituencies of Kangra district had reached. Earlier, Congress candidate from Dehra, Dr Rajesh Sharma addressed the crowd present from the stage for the rally of Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra at Nagrota Bagwan.

All Congress candidates in the fray from other assembly constituencies including Ajay Mahajan, Sudhir Sharma, Chànder Kumar, Mukesh Agnihotri, Ashish Butail, Surender Kaku, Sipiya , Sanjay Rattan, and other candidates were present.

Earlier, in July 2022, Rahul Gandhi hit the Centre over the Agnipath Scheme asking about the future of thousands of Agniveers who will retire after 4 years calling the Agniveers the new “experiment” of the Prime Minister which he said is a ‘danger for the security of the country and youth’.

“Every year, 60,000 soldiers retire, out of which only 3,000 are getting government jobs. What will be the future of thousands of Agniveers who will retire after four years of contracts ?,” he wrote in a tweet in Hindi.
