New Delhi: Days after a photo of a man in Army uniform taking part in the ongoing farmers agitation in Punjab went viral, intelligence agencies have started to ascertain whether the man in the picture is a serving soldier or an imposter.
The development came as Lt Gen HS Panag (retd), former GOC-in-C of Northern and Central Commands, wrote on Twitter that the matter should be investigated. He added that the Army has clear rules in place as regards serving personnel taking part in such events.
