Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai stated that the 'dharna' staged by Khanapur MLA in Karnataka is proof that Congress is adding fuel to fire, all over India.

Speaking to the media persons about the recently launched Agnipath recruitment scheme, Bommai said, "Agnipath is a novel scheme. The system of inducting youth for military training is prevalent all over the world. If the youth gets into military training at the age of 17-21 years, they would get many opportunities after a stint in the military. They would be inducted into paramilitary forces."
