देश की सुरक्षा कोई अल्पकालिक या अनौपचारिक विषय नहीं है, ये अति गंभीर व दीर्घकालिक नीति की अपेक्षा करती है। सैन्य भर्ती को लेकर जो ख़ानापूर्ति करनेवाला लापरवाह रवैया अपनाया जा रहा है, वो देश और देश के युवाओं के भविष्य की रक्षा के लिए घातक साबित होगा।

‘अग्निपथ’ से पथ पर अग्नि न हो।
Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav targeted the central government over 'Agnipath' and called it merely a negligent and casual attitude of the government. He said that the scheme will prove devastating for the country's future and that of the youths.
Besides Akhilesh Yadav, Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, BSP supremo Mayawati and many other leaders have also put the Modi government in the dock on Agnipath scheme.
