Soldiers have been commenting that the Agnibad project is an excellent plan.
In our army, a new job creation called ‘Agni Veerar’ has been created. Under the scheme, dubbed Agneepath, 50,000 soldiers are to be recruited annually on a four-year contract. Four years later, 25 percent will be enlisted in the three forces. There is opposition to the plan in many states. Incidents of violence are ongoing.
In this situation, the soldiers are of the opinion that this plan is the best. One of the soldiers said that the Agnibad project is only for the youth who are defending the country and not for the traitors.
21-year-olds are asking if I can join the military or if my educational qualifications will be affected. The federal government is inviting 21 graduates to the military. They have the intention to defend the country. Those who join the military under the scheme will be recruited into their home state police after four years. So the Agnibad project is a great project.
Only those who have no understanding of the plan are unnecessarily inciting violence. No one should divide the country by bringing politics or religion in this project. Thus he said.
