He warned, “You can be held guilty of a crime and you can be punished too.”
Controversy erupted after a BSF personnel who was identified as Tej Bahadur Yadav, posted a video alleging that near starvation diet served to them at the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir.
In the video, the jawan alleged: “We only get a ‘parantha’ and tea during breakfast. The food is served without any pickle or vegetables.”
“For lunch, we only get pulses which only have turmeric and salt and roti,” he said.
Yadav alleged that jawans sometimes go to bed on an empty stomach.
The videos have gone viral on the social media.
