being served to the Army said after revelations made by him he is being subjected to torture and that no heed has been paid to the concerns raised by him.On January 9, the BSF soldier had posted a video alleging that sub-standard quality of food was being served to the troops.Yadav had also sought voluntary retirement from the force after posting the video online. However, his plea was rejected on grounds that a Court of Inquiry on his allegations was pending as also charges on disciplinary grounds against him.“I want to ask the Prime Minister, that the food quality I had shown in the video was true but despite no action has been taken. I am being harassed for posting that video. Why is this happening? It was the Prime Minister who wanted to eradicate corruption from the country and I have just shown an instance of corruption within my department. Is this the result of pointing out corruption,” he asks in his recent video.Responding to the reports where it was mentioned that Yadav had 17 per cent of his Facebook friends from Pakistan, he said his phone was seized on January 10 and that his social networking account has been used without his permission.“I came to know that my mobile phone has been meddled with and it is being said I have found some contacts of Pakistan. I request you to not believe in such false rumours unless I communicate to you directly through any video,” he added.Earlier, the BSF told the Delhi High Court that the allegations of sub-standard food made by Yadav were false and that no complaint was made in the matter.In a video that sparked outrage, BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav of the 29 battalion Seema Suraksha Bal had stated that the troops are not even getting basic three square meals. — ANI
