Kurta-pyjama to enter Navy messes as services shed 'vestiges of colonial era'
Tuesday, 13 February 2024
The humble kurta-pyjama has now made a formal entry into the spit and polish environs of naval messes, in the latest such move based on govt's directive to shed "vestiges of the colonial era" and "Indianise" military traditions and customs. Navy has issued orders to all its commands and establishments to allow officers and sailors to wear the 'ethnic' attire of kurta-pyjamas, with sleeveless jackets and closed formal shoes or sandals, in officers' messes and sailors' institutes.
