Vinesh missed weight this morning by only 100 grams or 0.22 lbs.
Want to know how small that is?
100 grams weighs as much as these household items:
•1 bar of soap
•1 kiwi
•2 eggs
•100 paper clips

Sadly,this incident occurred on the martyrdom of the first Agniveer of India. He hailed from my district, Mansa in Punjab.
Amritpal Pal Singh was only 19 years old & had been recruited by Agniveer in December 2022. His duty was in J&K. Unfortunately, on this Wednesday he was martyred while on duty near LOC in Poonch(J&K).
This is sad that his body was brought to the village by his family in a private ambulance not in army vehicle. No army unit was present at his cremation & no Army guard of honor was provided to him. On request request of villagers the local Police accorded a guard of honor for our brave young man.
I learned that all of this is due to the new Agniveer policy of Modi govt. Which is why no army unit brought his body to the village & no army guard of honor was given. This treatment of our martyrs deeply saddened me.
If the policy thing is indeed true, it is a shameful act by the @narendramodi govt. The government should cease such treatment of our martyrs & provide a proper & respectful Army guard of honor to every soldier fighting for the country. It is indeed a matter of great shame.
