Appealing to the people not to hesitate to send their sons to the Army, the Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said that Agniveers will be given a pensionable job. Delivering a fiery speech while addressing a ‘Jan Aashirwaad Rally’ at village Dhorka Sector-95 in Gurugram in support of BJP Badshahpur candidate Rao Narbir Singh, Shah said: “Every Agniveer will get pension benefits. The Agniveer scheme was meant to make the Army young.”

Targeting Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, Shah said that the Congress leader is a ‘lying machine’. “Rahul Gandhi says that Agniveer Yojana has been brought because the government does not want to give pensionable jobs. I am telling you that every Agniveer will be given a pensionable job.”

Also criticizing Congress, he said: “There was a Congress government in Haryana, it ran on cuts, commissions and corruption. The rule of dealers, brokers and sons-in-law was prevalent. In the BJP government, neither dealers nor brokers are left, there is no question of sons-in-law.”

He said that during the Hooda Government, the Congress had only developed one district and one caste, but after the BJP gained power, the party had developed the entire state equally. “The party has given jobs based on 'Kharchi and Parchi' system while the BJP has given five lakh jobs without any 'Kharchi and Parchi,” he said.

The Home Minister said that the UPA government gave Rs 41,000 crores to Haryana whereas the Modi Government gave Rs 292,000 crores for development to Haryana in 10 years. “PM Modi loves Haryana the most among all the states,” he added.

He said that the Congress could not fulfil the promises it made in Himachal Pradesh and Karnataka. “This is their false guarantee, but the BJP has fulfilled the promises it made.”

He said that people are raising pro-Pakistan slogans from Congress platforms. “Why is Rahul Gandhi silent? Why doesn't he speak? Congress has become blind in appeasement. Congress and Rahul Gandhi want to bring back Article 370 in Kashmir. Even their three generations cannot bring back Article 370. India's flag has to be hoisted in Kashmir,” he said.

He added that as long as the Modi Government is there, only the Tricolour flag will fly in Kashmir.

While attacking the Hooda Government, the Home Minister said that brokers, dealers and ‘damaad’ auctioned Gurugram land. “In a public meeting, the Congress candidate says that he will give 50-50 jobs to his supporters. If they give jobs to their supporters from where will the common man get a job," he said. He added that Haryana is such a state where every tenth man is in the army.
