Singh had, earlier this week, approved the proposal of the Military Secretary (MS) branch that till a formal ruling is received from the Ministry of Defence on exemption, the status quo be maintained on providing information of any nature from the branch. Gen. Singh also directed that information about individual cases be not released.
