Amit Shah's Sharp Comeback To Rahul Gandhi Over Agniveer Scheme In Haryana

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday kept up the attack on the Congress in poll-bound Haryana, alleging Rahul Gandhi's election guarantees have come a cropper in states such as Himachal Pradesh and Karnataka where the grand old party is in power. Lashing out at Rahul Gandhi over the Agnipath scheme, Mr Shah described Rahul Gandhi as a "lying machine" and alleged that the leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha has claimed that Agniveers would not get jobs. With the Congress consistently targeting the BJP over the issue, Mr Shah told the gathering, "Don't hesitate to send your children to Army. Haryana and the Centre will give pensionable jobs to every single Agniveer." "After five years, you will not find even one Agniveer who will be without a pensionable job," he said.
