Prime Minister Narendra Modi led BJP government had resorted to strengthening privatisation in the garb of providing short-term employment to youths in the army through the ‘Agnipath scheme’, KPCC Media Analyst P.H. Neeralakeri said.
Addressing press persons in Hubballi on Friday, Mr. Neeralakeri said that the government should immediately drop the scheme as it was intended to saffronise the armed forces in the garb of privatisation.
He also said that the scheme is smacked of conspiracy of training the members of Hindutva outfits through short-term engagement in army and then use the trained youths to suit their political agenda.
