    Same Uniform For Brigadier And Above Rank Officers In Army From Aug 1

    [ad_1]

    SRINAGAR: In a major policy decision to promote and strengthen common identity and approach in service matters amongst senior leadership, Indian Army has asked its officers from the rank of Brigadier and above to don a common uniform from the month of August.

    Quoting military sources, KNO reported that different types of uniforms and accessories have a specific association with respective arms, regiments, and services in the Indian Army for recognition with distinct identity within the arms or regiment for junior leadership

    “Different types of uniform and accouterments have a specific association to respective arms and regiments in the Army. This recognition with distinct identity within the Arms or Regiment or Services is essential for junior leadership and the rank and file to further strengthen friendship, esprit de corps and regimental ethos which is the bedrock of soldiering,” sources said.

    They said, “In order to promote and strengthen common identity and approach in service matters amongst senior leadership, beyond the boundaries of regimentation, the Indian Army has decided to adopt a common uniform for Brigadier and above rank officers irrespective of the parent cadre and appointment.”

    “This will also reinforce the Indian Army’s character to be a fair and equitable organization,” they said adding, “The decision was taken after detailed deliberations during the recently concluded Army Commanders Conference and extensive consultations with all stakeholders.”

    At the unit or battalion level, sources said that a distinct sense of identity reflects a strong bond among officers and men in the same regiment.

    “The headgear, shoulder rank badges, gorget patches, belt, and shoes of senior officers of flag rank (Brigadier and above) will now be standardized and common,” they revealed.

    “The flag-rank officers will now not wear any lanyard. The changes will be implemented from August 1, 2023,” said sources.

    In the Indian Army, Brigadier and above officers are those who have already commanded units, and battalions and are mostly posted at headquarters or establishments where officers from all arms and services work and function together, they said.

    Sources said that a standard uniform will ensure a common identity for all senior-rank officers, while reflecting the true ethos of the Indian Army, adding, “There is no change to the uniform worn by Colonels and below-rank officers.”

  • AGMUT cadre IAS officers’ body expresses anguish over release of ex-MP Anand Mohan

    AGMUT cadre IAS officers’ body expresses anguish over release of ex-MP Anand Mohan

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: A group representing AGMUT cadre civil services officers has expressed “deep concern and anguish” over the release of former MP Anand Mohan, convicted for killing an IAS officer, following a change in the Bihar government’s prison manual.

    This tantamounts to a “denial of justice” to G Krishnaiah, who was Gopalganj district magistrate in 1994, and his family, the association said in a statement issued on May 4.

    Mohan was released by amending the classification rules of prisoners, the AGMUT Cadre IAS Officers’ Association said in a statement.

    MS Education Academy

    The association represents IAS officers serving in Arunachal Pradesh, Goa, Mizoram, and Union Territories (AGMUT) cadre.

    “The association expresses solidarity with the Indian Civil and Administrative Service (Central) Association in demanding justice to the family of Late G Krishnaiah, IAS. The association stands firmly by the family of the deceased officer in its fight for justice,” it said.

    In a statement earlier, the Indian Civil and Administrative Service (Central) Association said Mohan’s release is “tantamount to denial of justice” and urged the Bihar government to reconsider its decision.

    Krishnaiah was lynched by a mob led by Mohan in 1994. His wife Uma Krishnaiah has challenged the former Bihar MP’s premature release in the Supreme Court.

    Mohan was released from Saharsa jail last month following an amendment in Bihar’s prison rules. His name figured in a list of more than 20 prisoners who were ordered to be set free by a notification issued by the Bihar government’s Law department as they had spent more than 14 years behind bars.

    Uma Krishnaiah has contended that the sentence of life imprisonment awarded to Mohan meant incarceration for his entire natural course of life and that it cannot be mechanically interpreted to last just 14 years.

    Mohan was convicted for the murder of Krishnaiah, a Dalit IAS officer. According to reports, Krishnaiah died after his car was attacked during the funeral procession of gangster Chotan Shukla.

    The former MP was part of the procession in Muzaffarpur and the police had charge-sheeted him for provoking his supporters to commit the crime.
