Rajya Sabha marshals back to Old Traditional Uniform

New Delhi: The marshals of the Rajya Sabha returned to the House on Monday dressed in their old uniform — deep blue ‘band gala’ suit — after their new uniform was criticized by some Parliamentarians and retired naval officers. Interestingly, the headgear of the old uniform has been dropped. The marshals first appeared in their new uniform standing alongside the House Chairman M. Venkaiah Naidu when the 250th session of the Rajya Sabha began on November 18. The new uniform looked more like those worn by military personnel. It included a cap similar to that worn by a police or military officer. “The blue dress is for winters while the white ones would be worn in the summer season,” a Parliament staff said. (IANS)
