NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday said rank cannot determine the provision for nutrition in the armed forces and called for a reconsideration of the related rules.
Participating in a meeting of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Defence, which was convened to discuss the subject of “Provision and monitoring of quality of ration and livery items to the defence forces, especially in border areas”, he said providing less nutrition to the jawans is “unfair and discriminatory” and should be reconsidered.
Gandhi pitched for the jawans, saying they should get more nutrition as they are standing at the borders and defending the country. (AGENCIES)
