Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) senior vice president Niranjan Reddy has alleged that BJP at Centre has been trying to saffronise the Army and as part of that Agnipath scheme was introduced.
“Never in the past Chiefs of three Defence wings- Army, Navy and Air Force- came open and spoke with media. The Army discipline was not followed. They have to follow that without exception,” said Mr. Niranjan Reddy while speaking to reporters at Gandhi Bhavan here on Tuesday.
Calling the Defence top bosses to think about the loss being faced by society in the long run with implementation of Agnipath, the Congress leader said that the loopholes in the scheme came to the fore with the issue of notification.
