‘PM Modi wearing Army uniform in Kashmir is punishable offence’: UP court issues notice to PMO

The Uttar Pradesh District Court has issued a notice to the Prime Minister’s Office over the Indian Army uniform worn by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to Kashmir last year. The opinion was made following a request to Prayagraj’s court, which stated that wearing clothing used by soldiers, sailors or pilots or carrying tokens is an offence punishable under Section 140 of the Indian Penal Code.

According to a report by Dainik Bhaskar, District Judge Nalin Kumar Srivastava issued a notice to hear arguments from the defence, Rakesh Nath Pandey, under Section 156(3) of the Criminal Procedure Code (which empowers magistrates to order investigations of identifiable offences).

Pandey first made the application in December last year when Chief Justice Harendra Nath rejected the application, saying the matter was outside the jurisdiction of the court and the matter could be heard by a magistrate having jurisdiction.

Pandey challenged the order before the district judge, who has now given notice to the PMO. The court will now hear the case on March 2.

Last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated Diwali with soldiers in the Nowshera region of Jammu and Kashmir. Addressing soldiers on the occasion of Nowshera Diwali, the Prime Minister highlighted the government’s efforts to enhance indigenous capabilities, noting that modern border infrastructure has been established to enhance connectivity and troop deployment.

“I spend every Diwali with the soldiers guarding the border. Today, I bring the blessings of millions of Indians to the soldiers here,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi said.

Our soldiers are “suraksha kawach” of “Maa Bharti”. It is because of you that people in our country can sleep soundly and celebrate the holidays with happiness,” he added.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, praising the efforts of the soldiers in the surgical strike, has said there have been repeated attempts to spread terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, but they have been answered appropriately.

Ratan Tata, industry titan and national icon, dies at 86

Ratan Tata, who ran Tata Sons for more than 20 years as chairman, died at a Mumbai hospital.

Ratan Tata, the chairman emeritus of Tata Sons, has died, the group announced in a statement on Wednesday. He was 86. Ratan Tata, who ran the conglomerate for more than 20 years as chairman, had been undergoing intensive care in a Mumbai hospital since Monday.

“It is with a profound sense of loss that we bid farewell to Mr. Ratan Naval Tata, a truly uncommon leader whose immeasurable contributions have shaped not only the Tata Group but also the very fabric of our nation,” said N Chandrasekaran, Chairman, Tata Sons, in a late night statement.

On Monday, the industrialist had in a social media post dismissed speculation surrounding his health and had said he was undergoing routine medical investigations due to his age.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tribute to Ratan Tata, calling him a visionary business leader, compassionate soul, extraordinary human being.

“Ratan Tata endeared himself to people, thanks to his humility, kindness, unwavering commitment to making society better,” PM Modi said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

After graduating with a degree in architecture at Cornell University, he returned to India and in 1962 began working for the group his great-grandfather had founded nearly a century earlier.

He worked in several Tata companies, including Telco, now Tata Motors Ltd, as well as Tata Steel Ltd, later making his mark by erasing losses and increasing market share at group unit National Radio & Electronics Company.

In 1991, he took the helm of the conglomerate when his uncle J.R.D. Tata stepped down – the passing of the baton coming just as India embarked on radical reforms that opened up its economy to the world and ushered in an era of high growth.

Under Tata’s leadership, the group launched the Tata Nano, the world’s cheapest car, and expanded its software services arm, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), into a global IT leader.

Tata stepped down as chairman in 2012 but was later named chairman emeritus of Tata Sons and other group companies, including Tata Motors and Tata Steel. He briefly returned as interim chairman in 2016 during a leadership dispute.
