The Union Cabinet on 14 June had approved a recruitment scheme for Indian youth to serve in the Armed Forces. The scheme is called AGNEEPATH and the youth selected under this scheme will be known as Agniveers.
According to the government, AGNEEPATH scheme has been designed to enable a youthful profile of the Armed Forces. It will provide an opportunity to the youth who may be keen to don the uniform by attracting young talent from the society who are more in tune with contemporary technological trends and plough back skilled, disciplined and motivated manpower into the society.
However, under the new Agnipath scheme, around 45,000 to 50,000 soldiers will be recruited annually, and most will leave the service in just four years. Of the total annual recruits, only 25 per cent will be allowed to continue for another 15 years under permanent commission.
This is another example of the BJP government's incompetence: They want to treat Indian Youth like a tissue paper “Use & Throw”. If they want to induct this vibrant youth they should have to provide them with “Job Security”.
There is question that why the BJP is going to implement the Agnipath Scheme at a time when India is facing challenges on two fronts? This is unnecessary it would definitely reduce the operational effectiveness of Indian armed forces and compromise national security.
