4. Will the scheme reduce opportunities for youth in the armed forces?

The document states that the scheme will increase the opportunities for youth to serve in the armed forces rather than reduce them.

In the coming years, the recruitment of Agniveers will increase three times as compared to the current recruitment in the Armed Forces.

5. Will the plan reduce the effectiveness of the armed forces?

According to the government, most countries have such a concise service system i.e. it has already been tested.

It is considered to be the best system for the youth and the skill of the army. The number of Agniveers to be recruited in the first year will be only 3% of the armed forces.

Apart from this, the performance of Agniveers will be checked before they are re-admitted in the army after 4 years. With this, the army will be able to get skilled people for the supervisor rank.

6. Are 21 year olds not trustworthy for the army?

The government document states that most of the world’s military depends on its youth, but veterans also have their own importance.

In such a situation, the number of youth in the army will not be more than the experienced people at any time.

The present plan is to gradually bring in the experienced supervisor rank over a long period of time and the right ratio of just 50-50 per cent of the youth. This will keep trust in the army.

The youth who will wear the army uniform for 4 years and will be dedicated to the service of the country, he will be devoted to the country for the rest of his life.

Even at present, thousands of people retire from the armed forces with their skills, but till date there are no instances of them joining terrorist groups or anti-national forces.
