From clothes to accessories, everything black banned at PM Modi’s rally in Jharkhand’s Palamu
Hindustan TimesAlerted over the para-teachers’ possible attempt to show black flags to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Palamu district police in Jharkhand have banned entry of anything that is black — from garments to personal accessories — inside the venue where the PM will address a public meeting on January 5. Modi will kick off the revival of the long pending North Koel Irrigation project, locally known as Mandal Dam, besides launching a new water pipeline project for parched Palamu and Garhwa districts online from the Chiyanki airstrip at Daltonganj in Palamu district. In a similar action, the Palamu police had earlier stopped people from wearing anything black or carrying black bags while attending a programme at Daltonganj where the chief minister Rabhubar Das was also present. In a missive sent to the deputy commissioners of Latehar, Palamu, Garhwa and Chatra districts, the Palamu superintendent of police had urged them to direct all participants who will attend the PM’s meeting including the government employees to ensure that they did not carry anything black with them.
