No rollback of Agnipath scheme, says Army official
The Agnipath scheme for recruitment in the armed forces will not be rolled back, a senior military official said as the three Services announced the recruitment schedule for the first batch of Agniveers, with the training set to commence by year end.
“There is no space for indiscipline in the armed forces. No space for arson. Every one who aspires to join Agnipath has to give an undertaking that they have not taken part in any arson… There will be police verification after that,” said Lt. General Anil Puri, Additional Secretary in the Department of Military Affairs.
Department of Military Affairs Additional Secretary Lt. General Anil Puri addresses a press conference at the Defence Ministry in South Block, New Delhi on June 19, 2022.
The announcement came after a meeting between Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and the three Service Chiefs.
Air Marshal S.K. Jha said notification and registration process for enrollment of first batch will go live online from June 24 through the well established online system of the Indian Air Force. Navy’s Chief of Personnel Vice-Admiral Dinesh K. Tripathi said they have already started working on the process and the advertisement will reach the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting by June 25 and the process would start within one month. “By November 21 the first batch of Agniveers will report at our training centre INS Chilka. The Agniveers will be gender neutral. Women will also be inducted,” he said.
Meanwhile, the protests against the scheme continued in several States. Several Opposition leaders criticised the move and pushed for its withdrawal, while the government continued to defend it. The Congress organised a “satyagraha” at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar against the scheme. Speaking at the protests, party leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said, “You dream about getting recruited in the army. A job that will help you take care of your family and the country. There is no bigger patriot than you. And I would say that you must keep your eyes open to recognise the fake nationalists and fake patriots,” to the youth.
In a tweet, Rahul Gandhi also said, “By repeatedly giving false hope of jobs, the prime minister has forced the youth of the country to walk on the ‘Agnipath’ of unemployment.”
However, Minister of State for External Affairs V. Muraleedharan said that the youth protesting against the scheme are unaware of its benefit and urged them to end the protests.
