Rahul Gandhi criticised BJP’s Agnipath scheme at a roadshow in Haryana, saying it would strip Agniveers of pensions to benefit Gautam Adani. The BJP countered, promising government jobs with pensions. In July, CM Nayab Singh Saini-led Haryana government announced a 10 per cent reservation for Agniveers in certain government jobs, besides age relaxation and interest-free loans for self-employment.
