Korea: CM Bhupesh Baghel in a media interaction in Korea district on Tuesday slammed the centre with the ongoing political crises in Maharashtra. According to Baghel the CBI and the ED is also involved in the political turmoil.

Speaking on the ongoing nationwide protests against Agnipath, Baghel asserted that the Centre should reconsider its decision citing a statement issued by the Former Congress President. Rahul Gandhi last week, criticised the Agnipath scheme of short-term recruitment into the armed forces, saying that this “reduces the operational effectiveness” of the forces.

In a tweet, Rahul Gandhi said that India faces “threats on two fronts”, and “The BJP government must stop compromising the dignity, traditions, valour and discipline” of India’s armed forces.

Speaking about the three-day tour to Korea, Baghel informed about the press conference on July 3rd. Following this, he would visit Gaurela Pendra Marwahi concluding his trip.
