CAG criticises defence ministry for lack of planning in implementing decision on dress allowance

"The Ministry of Defence took three months (November 2017) to convey the above decision to the Armed Forces and took further seven months (June 2018) in issuing detailed clarifications on basic and special uniforms," a press release issued by the CAG said. The Ministry of Defence had sufficient time between November 2015 (issue of 7th CPC recommendations) and November 2017 (issue of orders on dress allowance) to review existing stock of basic uniforms lying at various army depots, it said.
