Oppn playing politics over Agnipath scheme, says PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday rejected claims that the Agnipath scheme was launched to save on the pension bill, stating that it was implemented in consultation with the Army to keep the armed forces young and battle-ready.

The PM made the remarks in his address on the 25th anniversary of the victory in the Kargil War of 1999, which is marked as Kargil Vijay Diwas. Modi's statement triggered a war of words between the ruling National Democratic Alliance and the INDIA bloc over the Agnipath scheme.
