Appeal to widows of ex-servicemen
The Hindu
They have been urged to wear husbands’ medals at military functions
President of Mysuru-based VeKare Ex-Servicemen Trust Mandetira N. Subramani has called upon the widows of ex-servicemen to wear the medals of their deceased husbands during important military functions and national festivals.
In a statement here, Mr. Subramani said there is no bar on Veer Naaris or widows proudly wearing their deceased husband’s authorised military medals on their chest in a befitting manner while attending military functions, Army, Navy and Air Force Days, besides national festivals like Republic Day and Independence Day.
“Veer Naaris and widows of ex-servicemen wearing the military medals at important military functions and national festivals would send signals loud and clear that their husband’s life was sacrificed for the nation”, he said.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
