"Strike First, Think Later": BJP's Varun Gandhi Jabs Centre On 'Agnipath' Scheme

Varun Gandhi said changes made to the scheme show that various dimensions were not considered when the policy was framed.
BJP MP Varun Gandhi on Saturday took a swipe at the Centre over the Agnipath scheme, saying it is not appropriate for a sensitive government to "strike first and think later" when it comes to the armed forces, security and youth's future. 'अग्निपथ योजना' को लाने के बाद महज कुछ घंटे के भीतर इसमें किए गए संशोधन यह दर्शाते हैं कि संभवतः योजना बनाते समय सभी बिंदुओं को ध्यान में नहीं रखा गया।जब देश की सेना, सुरक्षा और युवाओं के भविष्य का सवाल हो तो ‘पहले प्रहार फिर विचार' करना एक संवेदनशील सरकार के लिए उचित नहीं।
Varun Gandhi cited the changes brought in the scheme, a short term employment for youngsters in the armed forces as soldiers, soon after it was announced, saying it shows that its various dimensions were not considered when the policy was being framed, he said.
