Tej Bahadur Yadav, from the B.S.F. battalion, recently posted videos on Facebook in which he has complained about the pathetic condition and quality of food offered to BSF jawans. He accuses the senior officers of swindling the money meant for the forces. These videos indeed touched our hearts and became viral in no time.
The videos became a talking point on social media and people started sympathizing with the soldiers. Within no time BSF released a statement and accused the jawan of being an “indisciplined man”.
Twitter king Virender Sehwag responded on the viral video and he had something to say about the BSF Jawan Claim On Food Quality.
Virender Sehwag, who took to Twitter and said that appropriate action must be taken. He strongly said that proper food should reach the soldiers. Have a look at his tweet.
Whatever said and done,our Soldiers and Farmers need to be taken better care of. Proper food needs to reach them all.#Food4Soldiers pic.twitter.com/5WG9btYabs

Here are some of the twitter reactions after Sehwag support to soldiers and farmers.
Sad that people complain about standing in queue while our soldiers and farmers are braving death. Without them we will die.

Soldiers starving, Farmers starving, but our Netas enjoy great food and fun in parliament, 3 seasons a year.

It’s shameful that rather than sorting out the real problem. Narrative is being changed from good food to the soldier’s past@virendersehwag

Such type of condition is not alone in BSF, but also in all Uniform Service, where higher officers exploit lower formation.
