Congress leaders Jairam Ramesh, Manish Tewari spar on Twitter over Agnipath scheme

Former Union Ministers Jairam Ramesh and Manish Tewari on Wednesday sparred on social media after Mr. Ramesh took to Twitter to distance Mr. Tewari's views on the Agnipath recruitment scheme from that of the Congress.

"Manish Tewari, INC MP, has written an article on Agnipath. While @INCIndia is the only democratic party, it must be said his views are entirely his own & not of the party, which firmly believes Agnipath is anti-national security & anti-youth, bulldozed through without discussion," tweeted Mr. Ramesh, who is the Congress general secretary in charge of communications.
