Agniveers should be given same respect as regular soldiers: Congress
The Congress party has criticized the Agnipath scheme, calling it "fatal" for the country's youth. They demand that soldiers recruited under the initiative be respected like regular soldiers. The party claims that the scheme creates discrimination in the army and poses a risk to national security. The Congress party questions whether Agniveers, who are trained for only six months, can be well-prepared for all situations.
