Great to see outreach in the islands. But I hope they are also clearly explaining the terms of the Agniveer scheme. Transparency about service periods and future prospects is crucial for these young aspirants.

As someone who has visited the Andamans, connecting with youth in such remote locations is a logistical challenge. Kudos to the team for pulling this off. The armed forces truly are unifying force for the nation.

"Delhi to Dweep" is a clever name for the campaign. It symbolizes the reach of our national institutions. Hope many bright students from the islands join and bring their unique perspective to the forces.

While the outreach is good, the real test is a fair and transparent recruitment process afterwards. I hope the eligible candidates from these sessions get a genuine shot without any regional bias.
