Sarkari Wardi: Symbol of Pride, Responsibility, and Dedication in India
In India, "Sarkari Wardi" refers to the uniforms worn by government officials and personnel, such as police officers, military members, firefighters, and other public servants. These uniforms are much more than attire; they symbolize duty, honor, and a commitment to serve the nation. Wearing a government uniform often instills a deep sense of pride and responsibility in the individuals who don it, as it represents their dedication to maintaining law, order, and safety for the country and its citizens. This article explores the various types of Sarkari Wardi, their significance, history, and the challenges faced by uniformed officials.
Types of Sarkari Wardi in India
Police Uniforms: Representing Law and Order
Police uniforms are one of the most recognizable forms of Sarkari Wardi. Generally consisting of khaki-colored attire, these uniforms represent law enforcement and signify the authority and commitment of officers to uphold the law and protect civilians. Police officers' uniforms also include insignia denoting rank, badges, and other symbolic elements that reflect their roles and responsibilities.
Military Uniforms: Symbols of Strength and Sacrifice
The uniforms of the Indian Armed Forces—Army, Navy, and Air Force—are a source of pride, reflecting sacrifice, valor, and patriotism. Each branch has distinctive uniforms for various ranks and special occasions. These uniforms symbolize the dedication of military personnel, who are trained to protect the sovereignty and integrity of the country, often putting their lives on the line.
Firefighter Uniforms: Commitment to Public Safety
Firefighter uniforms are designed to offer protection against hazardous situations, such as fires and other emergencies. These uniforms are usually made from heat-resistant materials, providing the firefighters with a shield while they perform rescue operations. Wearing this uniform is a testament to their courage, as firefighters are tasked with saving lives under life-threatening conditions.
Customs and Border Patrol Uniforms: Securing the Nation’s Borders
Customs and border patrol officers wear uniforms that signify their role in ensuring national security by monitoring and managing India’s borders. These officers are responsible for preventing illegal activities, managing immigration, and protecting the country’s borders. Their uniforms represent authority and a commitment to national safety.
The History and Evolution of Sarkari Wardi
From Colonial to Modern Times
The concept of government uniforms in India dates back to colonial times when the British introduced structured uniforms for officials in law enforcement and military positions. Over time, these uniforms evolved to better meet the needs of Indian officers and reflect the cultural identity of the nation.
Changes in Design and Technology Over Time
Modern-day Sarkari Wardi incorporates advancements in fabric technology, ensuring durability and comfort. For instance, military and police uniforms now use materials that provide flexibility, breathability, and resistance to harsh conditions, allowing officials to perform their duties with greater ease and effectiveness.
Why is the Sarkari Wardi Respected?
Symbol of Authority and Trust
Sarkari Wardi signifies authority and demands respect from civilians, as it represents the individuals who dedicate themselves to public service. This respect stems from the uniform’s association with law enforcement, protection, and public welfare.
Inspiring a Sense of Duty and Pride
Wearing the Sarkari Wardi often inspires a deep sense of responsibility and pride in the individuals who wear it. The uniform serves as a reminder of the important role they play in maintaining peace, security, and public order.
Uniform as an Equalizer Among Ranks
The uniform serves as an equalizer within ranks, signifying that all personnel share the same mission despite differing roles. It brings a sense of unity and camaraderie, fostering teamwork and discipline.
Challenges Faced by Government Uniform-Wearing Personnel
Physical and Mental Stress
Uniformed personnel often face physically demanding roles that require strength, resilience, and endurance. These jobs can also take a toll mentally, as officials deal with high-stress situations on a regular basis, sometimes with minimal resources or support.
Balancing Personal Life and Duty
Serving in uniform often requires personnel to work long hours, be on call, or work in challenging environments, making it difficult to balance family life with professional responsibilities. Their commitment to duty often comes with personal sacrifices, highlighting the depth of their dedication.
FAQs
Q1: Why are police uniforms mostly khaki in color?
A1: The khaki color is chosen for police uniforms due to its durability and ability to hide dirt, as well as its association with authority and discipline.
Q2: What are the types of uniforms worn by the Indian Armed Forces?
A2: Each branch of the Indian Armed Forces has different uniforms, including ceremonial attire, combat uniforms, and dress uniforms. Each type serves a specific purpose, from formal ceremonies to active duty.
Q3: How often are Sarkari Wardi designs updated?
A3: Uniform designs are occasionally updated to improve functionality, comfort, and safety. These updates reflect advancements in fabric technology and may include modifications for specific environments or roles.
Q4: What does wearing a Sarkari Wardi symbolize?
A4: Wearing a government uniform symbolizes responsibility, loyalty, and dedication to serving the public. It instills a sense of pride and duty in the individuals who wear it.
Conclusion:
The Sarkari Wardi, in its various forms, embodies a sense of duty, honor, and commitment to public service. Whether worn by a police officer, soldier, firefighter, or customs official, these uniforms stand as symbols of bravery and dedication to the nation. Recognizing the sacrifices and challenges faced by uniformed personnel allows us to appreciate their role in maintaining the safety, security, and order of our society. Every time an individual dons the Sarkari Wardi, they carry with them the respect and trust of the public, honoring the spirit of service to the nation.

October 10, 2022
Amit Kumar had everything going for him. After graduating in engineering and landing a decent job, Amit wanted to settle down with his childhood sweetheart Renu. The couple had known each other since Class IX and dreamt of a life together. The only difficulty was that Renu belonged to a Brahmin family and Amit was a Dalit.
With their homes barely a kilometre apart in Garhwa district of Jharkhand, Renu knew her family would never approve of the match. The couple decided to run away and tie the knot in another State. And thus began their tale of unending harassment and tragedy.
The couple married at a temple in Dehradun and got their marriage registered there. They had just about settled down at Paonta Sahib in Himachal Pradesh when, in a midnight raid, the Uttar Pradesh police took away Renu, claiming that she had been abducted. Amit and Renu have not seen or spoken to each other since that fateful night of August 13, 2021.
Amit’s life has been a quagmire of legal battles and dismissed habeas corpus petitions since then. “I fear my wife is no more,” he told The Hindu.
Activists say such tragic situations can be avoided if couples like Amit and Renu are provided safe houses and special protection by the State governments as mandated by the Supreme Court.
According to data from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), the number of “honour killings” in the country was 24, 25 and 33 in 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. Punjab, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand topped the list in 2021 and 2020, while Manipur was on top in 2019.
The government in 2021 informed Parliament that there were 145 “honour killing” incidents in the country between 2017 and 2019.
Interestingly, though the NCRB report attributed only 25 deaths to “honour killings” in 2020, it said there were 27 deaths due to casteism and 1,558 due to “illicit relationship”. Similarly, in 2021, 33 deaths were listed under “honour killings”, but 1,544 and 1,532 under “illicit relationship” and “love affairs”, respectively.
So far, only Delhi, Haryana and Punjab have safe houses for inter-faith and inter-religious couples. Kerala has only announced the setting up of a safe house.
In fact, only 21 States have said that they have complied with the Supreme Court directives, which means that they have asked the police officers concerned of a State for strict compliance, according to Dhanak for Humanity, a non-governmental organisation which works with such couples, helping them solemnise their marriages and providing legal support.
The Supreme Court had in 2018 directed that safe houses be set up in every district as well as a special cell in States for couples facing opposition from families and community.
Gaurav Yadav, an engineer from IIT Chennai, said he was working with survivors of “honour crimes” and couples who are in hiding to petition the government for more safe houses across the country.
“Soon we will form an official grouping and petition the government to follow the Supreme Court directives on safe houses and special cells,” Mr. Yadav said, adding that he had organised a convention regarding the same in Delhi recently.
He said though couples had been demanding that safe houses be set up, the State administrations had looked the other way.
An example is of Ravikant Chandrawanshi and Alisha, who had a harrowing time getting married under the Special Marriage Act in Chhattisgarh.
The inter-faith couple at first decided to elope and marry in Bilaspur. However, a lack of support system and security, including finances, saw them return home in Kawardha within four days.
“As my wife’s family were well to do and politically connected, they kept up the pressure on us. Finally, we had to take legal recourse and approached the High Court asking them to direct the State administration to provide the mandated safe house and police protection.
“However, we were informed that there was no safe house and Alisha had to go to a sakhi centre or a women’s safe house,” Mr. Chandravanshi said.
Though the couple approached the highest of authorities, they were not given any police protection either and had to go into hiding for around six months after their marriage.
According to Asif Iqbal of Dhanak for Humanity, most States send the girl to a Nari Niketan after couples approach them. “It is here that the girl is the most insecure as her family mostly approaches her and puts pressure to go back. Many a time, this also leads to what is known as honour killing of the girl”.
Sanjay Sachadev of Love Commandoes, an organisation which rescues and shelters such couples, said, “The need of the hour is safe houses across the country. In almost every case, the police try and send the girl to a women’s shelter and the boy is left to fend for himself.”
A couple who are staying in a Delhi safe house and did not wish to be identified said that they could not have thought of living together had it not been for the security of the safe house.
Mr. Iqbal, whose organisation has helped many couples seek legal recourse to stay together and get married, said that of the distress calls he receives, the most were from Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra and Rajasthan.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Ram temple in Ayodhya in the key northern state of Uttar Pradesh in January in hopes it would earn him a massive victory in the national election that concluded in June. That didn’t happen—at least not to the extent that Modi, his Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and their ideological fountainhead Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) expected.
In what has widely been described as a shock result, the BJP won merely 240 seats in the 543-seat parliament, after setting a target of 400 seats. Modi has formed a government but only with support from other parties.
Like any election result, the outcome had multiple causes that will take time to fully sort out. But one thing is already clear: Modi failed in his long-running bid to homogenize India’s Hindus across castes and cultures and consolidate their vote for his political benefit.
In 2014, Modi came to power on the back of religious nationalism and security issues, and he continued that trend in 2019. This year, in the absence of any urgent security threat from regional rival Pakistan and rising concerns over unemployment, inflation, and authoritarianism, Modi banked on the RSS’s homogenization strategy.
The Ram temple was built on a site long disputed with Muslims, where a 16th-century mosque stood until December 1992, when a group of Hindu nationalists razed it to the ground allegedly on the BJP’s provocation. Experts said the BJP had envisaged the temple would instill pride in Hindus, feed their Muslim animosity, and bring them under the Hindu umbrella to choose Modi.
Even though, by and large, the Hindu community seemed to have been pleased with the inauguration of the temple, that didn’t translate into votes for Modi across the Hindu hierarchy. Instead, the results exposed the weaknesses of the homogenization exercise.
Hartosh Singh Bal, an Indian journalist and the executive editor of the Caravan, said there is “diversity in Hinduism” and the election results prove that it can’t be “papered over by directing attention and hatred outwards” toward Muslims. This election proves that “Hindus are not a monolith” and that “various segments of Hinduism have a successful chance of taking on the BJP,” he added in reference to tactical voting by lower castes in Uttar Pradesh against the BJP.
Karthick Ram Manoharan, a political scientist at the National Law School of India University in Bengaluru, said that in Tamil Nadu, a state in southern India with the second-biggest economy in the country, the BJP did not win a single seat out of a total of 39.
“Hindus are the absolute majority in Tamil Nadu, but they still mostly vote for the secular Dravidian parties,” Manoharan said in reference to local parties that have emerged out of social movements opposed to an upper-caste Hindu order that the BJP and RSS have been long accused of nurturing and propagating.
In March, just a month before voting began, I witnessed saffron-colored flags expressing support for Modi’s party jutting out from rooftops and windows in tightly packed homes in western Uttar Pradesh. Some people I spoke to said that BJP workers had decided to adorn the neighborhoods as they pleased, but underneath the flag-waving, a large-scale discontent was brewing over a lack of employment opportunities.
The upper-caste youth seemed confused, if not yet disenchanted, with Modi and in the absence of industry and strong local economies once again mourned the loss of government jobs to affirmative action. (The Indian Constitution reserves almost half of all state jobs for people from lower castes and others who confront a generational disadvantage and historical discrimination.)
Meanwhile, Dalits, who sit at the bottom of India’s Hindu hierarchy, in hamlets nearby who depend on the quota for their dignity and livelihood were quietly recalibrating their options. The mood was starkly different from 2014 and 2019 when I visited some of the Dalit-dominated parliamentary seats in Uttar Pradesh. Back then, Dalits I met were upbeat and decisively pro-Modi. They said they supported him since they believed that he might raise their stature in the Hindu hierarchy.
But 10 years later, they suspected the BJP was plotting to weaken the constitution, the only assurance of rights for marginalized communities in a country where upper-caste Hindus continue to hold social capital and economic power.
Recent comments by BJP leaders that if Modi won 400 seats, he would change the constitution spread anxiety among lower castes that the party intended to scrap the reservation system. The BJP repeatedly denied this, but the suspicion that it is first a party for upper-caste Hindus is deep-rooted among lower castes, and experts believe the comments were part of the BJP’s political strategy.
“They were testing the waters to see what would be the reaction,” said Sushil Kumar Pandey, an assistant professor of history at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University in Lucknow and the author of Caste and Politics in Democracy.
“The opposition picked it up and campaigned on it, telling people a change in the constitution could mean losing your livelihood, your jobs,” Pandey added. “That worked at a time [when] people were also scared of privatization” and in government-run sectors.
For Dalits, it was about more than jobs. The Indian Constitution is nearly worshipped by the community and celebrated en masse on the birth anniversary of the Indian intellectual who wrote it. B.R. Ambedkar was no fan of Ram and advocated against the caste discrimination inherent in Hinduism all his life, even converting to Buddhism when he felt there was no escaping caste-based prejudice. While he couldn’t annihilate the caste system, he ensured that the constitution offered lower castes a quota in government jobs to gradually uplift them.
In his honor, and as an ode to the progressive document, Dalits sing songs in praise of the constitution and hail it as the upholder of their dignity in a society where they continue to be belittled. Any change to the text was unacceptable. “Their cultural identity is linked to this book,” said Ravish Kumar, a journalist and the host of a popular YouTube news show.
In the south, too, there was a fear of culturally being subsumed by a Hindi-speaking upper-caste elite. Indian federal units, or states, were defined in the 1950s on the basis of language, and to this day south Indians identify themselves on the basis of the language they speak. The Ram temple had no resonance in the southern states, particularly in electorally significant Tamil Nadu, with the highest number of seats regionally. Tamils were wary that the RSS’s homogenization agenda would drown out their cultural ethos and impose a secondary status on the Tamil language.
Manoharan, the political scientist, said that in Tamil Nadu, it was “not so much religious but fear of cultural homogeneity” and “a language policy which will give importance to Hindi speakers over Tamil speakers and upper-caste Tamils over other backward castes.”
In a state where “88 percent people come from so-called lower castes” and “69 percent have jobs under affirmative action through a special act,” people were also extremely worried that the BJP may “water down” the employment quota promised in the constitution, Manoharan added.
The southern Indian states have a longer history of resistance to upper-caste domination, a higher literacy rate, better economies, and a tradition of secular politics. While the BJP maintained its tally of 29 seats from the last election, it is being seen as a poor result considering the inroads the RSS has made in the south.
For instance, in the southwestern state of Kerala, the RSS has more than 5,000 shakhas, or branches, second in number only to Uttar Pradesh, India’s most populous state—yet “despite the fact that the RSS has thousands of training grounds in Kerala, they are unable to get influence,” said K.M. Sajad Ibrahim, a professor of political science at University of Kerala. “That’s because while religion is important, communal harmony is more important to people here. BJP tries to create tensions, and that doesn’t work here.”
The BJP managed to gain one seat for the first time in Kerala, but that isn’t being attributed to its ideological success or expansion of homogenization project but to the winning candidate’s personal appeal. Suresh Gopi, the winning candidate, is a popular movie star.
In many states in the Hindi belt and even in the south, the BJP did well. The upper castes and urban voters are standing firmly behind Modi. Kumar, the journalist, said it would be foolhardy to dismiss Modi—and the bigger Hindutva, or Hindu nationalist, forces backing him—just yet. He said Hindutva hasn’t lost and only faced a setback. “The BJP was trying to dominate caste politics with Hindutva,” he said, “but the election result shows that dominance has cracked.” However, he added, “it has only cracked—the ideology still has wide-scale acceptance.”
Everyone else Foreign Policy spoke to concurred but added that Hindus are far too diverse to be homogenized. Manoharan said the results exposed the weakness of the homogenization agenda and its faulty premise. “Hindutva’s aim for homogeneity is confounded precisely by a structural feature of the religion-culture it seeks to defend—caste,” he said.

The demand for a caste census continues to gain popularity. After Bihar published the results of its case census in October, pressure is growing on the Karnataka government to release its findings. Andhra Pradesh has started its caste census and there are increasing calls for a similar exercise in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal.
With direct implications for reservations in education and public sector jobs, welfare provisions and political mobilisation, caste censuses could be decisive to uncovering power relations in the country.
The 2024 general elections are due soon and a caste census may momentarily seem to have diminished in importance, given the gains made by the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance with inauguration of the Ram temple in January. But its significance will doubtless become apparent after the election when the challenges of poverty, unemployment and related issues of resource distribution rise to the fore.
So far, the focus in caste census discussions has largely been on ascertaining the populations of caste communities and tackling problems related to the multiplicity of jati names. How people identify themselves is shaped by a complex mix of tradition, personal beliefs political positioning and the influence of community organisations. Understanding identities is, therefore, a weighty task.
At the same time, equal attention must be paid to the opportunity presented by the exercise to measure land ownership by caste. Caste censuses can reveal crucial patterns in how power in India is enmeshed in land. Most importantly, the caste census has the potential to bring land reform back to political agendas.

A Study of the Heart and Brain (Book 4) Chapter Twelve
Father Figure! Sherlock Holmes x Teen! Reader
Chapter Twelve: Confrontational Reunion
Summary: Sherlock, (Y/N), and John track down Mary. Ajay does the same.
“Agra?” said Mycroft, raising a brow.
After Sherlock and (Y/N) had recovered from Mary’s escape—apparently it would be good to assume in the future that she always had some sort of weapon or drug on her—they had quickly gone to first tell John and then go to Mycroft for information. Then, they could find Mary. She was a talented agent, but they weren’t going to let her disappear.
“A city on the banks of the river Yamuna, in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, India,” said Mycroft. “It is 378 kilometers west of the state capital, Lucknow.”
“What are you, Wikipedia?” said Sherlock.
“Yes,” said Mycroft smugly.
“AGRA’s an acronym,” said (Y/N).
“Oh, good, I love an acronym,” said Mycroft. “All the best secret societies have them.”
“Team of agents, the best,” said Sherlock. “But you know all of that.”
“Of course I do, go on,” said Mycroft.
“One of them, Ajay, is looking for Mary, also one of the team,” said Sherlock.
“Indeed. Well, that’s news to me,” said Mycroft.
“Is it?” said (Y/N), narrowing their eyes. “Since their last job was for the British government, we thought you might know a bit more about the situation.” They smiled and tilted their head.
“They’re getting fast,” said Mycroft, smirking at Sherlock, who grinned. Mycroft looked back at (Y/N). “AGRA were very reliable. Then came the Tbilisi incident. They were sent in to free the hostages, but it all went horribly wrong. And that was that. We stopped using freelancers.”
“Your initiative?” said Sherlock.
“My initiative,” said Mycroft. “Freelancers are too wooly, too messy. I don’t like loose ends. Not on my watch.”
“There was something else,” said Sherlock. “A detail. A codeword.” He wrote it down.
“Ammo?” read Mycroft.
“It’s all we’ve got,” said Sherlock.
“But it was just heard over the phone, so spelling could vary if it means something,” said (Y/N). In the world of spies and assassins, all possibilities had to be considered.
“Could you do some digging, as a favor?” said Sherlock.
“You don’t have many favors left,” said Mycroft smugly.
“You owe me,” said (Y/N).
“For what?” said Mycroft.
“Magnussen,” said (Y/N).
“I had to keep Sherlock from being exiled for that,” said Mycroft.
“Yeah, but that was because other people wanted him kept alive, not you,” said (Y/N). They leaned forward. “So even if the British government doesn’t owe me, you do.” They smiled. “Would you help us, please?”
Mycroft hummed. “Sherlock, they’re becoming quite impertinent.”
“I know. I’m proud,” said Sherlock, smiling at (Y/N), who smiled at him.
“However…say you do find who’s after her and neutralize them, then what?” Mycroft looked intently at his brother. “You think you can go on saving her forever?”
“Of course,” said Sherlock.
“Is that sentiment talking?” said Mycroft.
“No, it’s me,” said Sherlock.
“Difficult to tell the difference these days,” said Mycroft.
“Told you, I made a promise. A vow,” said Sherlock, gaze hard and set.
“Alright, I’ll see what I can do,” sighed Mycroft. “But remember this, family mine.” For all the sentiment insults, (Y/N) was considered a Holmes by Mycroft as much as by anyone else. “Agents like Mary tend not to reach retirement age. They get retired in a pretty permanent sort of way.”
“Not on my watch,” said Sherlock.
… (Y/N) glanced down, and their fingers twitched for a lollipop.
l
(Y/N) leaned back with their eyes closed as the Moroccan heat baked the entire house they were in despite the shade. They were used to London air—which lacked sun so often that no one remembered it existed.
Sherlock was playing a board game with a boy, Karim, who had given them some water while they waited for Mary to arrive.
“You haven’t got a chance. Not a chance,” he said. “I got you where I want you. Give in, give in. I will destroy you. You’re completely at my mercy. Mr. Baker. Well, that completes the set.”
“No, it is not,” said Karim.
“Well, who else am I missing?” said Sherlock.
“Master Bun. It’s not a set without him,” said Karim. “How many more times, Mr. Sherlock?”
Sherlock’s luck with board games continued to be poor. “Hmm, maybe it’s because I’m not familiar with the concept.”
A woman walked around the corner and stared in astonishment at the gathering. It was Mary, holding a gun, not having expected them at all.
“Oh, hi, Mary,” said Sherlock.
“Hello, Mary,” said (Y/N).
“What concept?” said Karim.
“Happy families,” said Sherlock. He looked back at Mary. “Nice trip?”
“How the f—”
“Please, Mary, there are children present,” said Sherlock.
“I’ve heard and seen worse,” said (Y/N).
“Still a child,” said Sherlock.
“How did you get here?” exclaimed Mary.
“Karim let us in,” said Sherlock.
“Hello,” said Karim.
“Karim, would you be so kind as to fetch us some tea?” said Sherlock.
“Sure,” said Karim, rising and heading to the door.
“Thank you,” said Sherlock.
“No, I-I mean, how did you find me?” said Mary.
“We’re Holmses,” said (Y/N).
“Really though, how?” said Mary. “Every movement I made was entirely random. Every new personality, just on the roll of a dice.”
“Mary, no human action is ever truly random,” said Sherlock. “An advanced grasp of the mathematics of probability mapped on to a thorough apprehension of human psychology and the known dispositions of any given individual can reduce the number of variables considerably. I myself know of at least fifty-eight techniques to refine the seemingly infinite array of randomly generated possibilities down to the smallest number of feasible variables.”
Mary nodded.
“But that’s super hard, so we just put a tracker on the flash drive before we met you,” said (Y/N), straight to the point.
“Oh, you bastards,” said Mary, beginning to laugh.
“Yeah, but your face,” said Sherlock, grinning.
“ ‘The mathematics of probability,’ ” said Mary.
“You believed that,” said Sherlock.
“ ‘Feasible variables,’ ” said Mary.
“He hadn’t practiced any more lines,” said (Y/N).
“In the memory stick,” groaned Mary.
“Yeah, that was my idea.” John stepped into the room.
Mary looked at him, and her smile turned somber.
“We need to talk,” said John.
Mary nodded.
“AGRA,” said John.
“Yes,” said Mary.
“You said it was your initials,” said John.
“In a way, that was true,” said Mary.
“In a way?” repeated John. He shook his head. “So many lies.”
“I’m so sorry,” said Mary.
“I don’t just mean you,” said John.
“What?” said Mary.
“Alex, Gabriel, Ajay. And you’re R,” said John.
Mary nodded.
�� “Rosamund?” said John.
“Rosamund Mary,” said Mary. “I always liked Mary.”
“Yeah, me too,” said John. He smiled, but it fell. “I used to.” He stood and turned away.
“I didn’t know what else to do,” said Mary.
“You could have stayed. You could have talked to me,” said John. “That’s what couples are supposed to do. Work things through.”
Mary nodded. “Yes. Yes, of course.” She looked down, knowing she had been in the wrong.
“Mary, I may not be a very good man,” said John. “But I think I’m a bit better than you give me credit for. Most of the time.”
“All of the time,” said Mary. “You’re always a good man, John. I’ve never doubted that You never judge. You never complain. I don’t deserve you, I…All I wanted to do was keep you and Rosie safe, that’s all.”
“I will keep you safe,” said Sherlock. “But it has to be in London. It’s my city, I know the turf. Come home and everything will be alright, I promise you.”
A red dot appeared on John.
“Get down!” shouted (Y/N).
Mary’s reflexes were quick, and she pulled John to the ground as a loud “Bang!” shattered the night. More gunshots followed as the group found cover, Sherlock pulling (Y/N) close protectively. Ajay kicked the doors of the hotel open and came in, gun still cocked. Mary pulled hers and shot at him. The two circled each other before ending up behind columns in the wall.
“Hello again,” said Ajay.
“Ajay,” said Mary.
“Oh, you remember me, I’m touched,” sneered Ajay.
“Look, I thought you were dead. Believe me, I did,” said Mary.
“I’ve been looking forward to this longer than you can imagine,” said Ajay.
“I swear to you, I thought you were dead,” said Mary. “I thought I was the only one who got out.” She held out her gun to Sherlock, and he took it. Now Ajay wouldn’t know who had it.
“How did you find us?” said Sherlock.
“By following you, Sherlock Holmes,” sneered Ajay. “I mean, you’re clever. You found her, but I found you, sir. Perhaps not so clever. And now here we are. At last.”
Sherlock shot the light, and they were thrown into darkness.
“Touche,” said Ajay, now having a harder time figuring out where they were.
“Listen, whatever you think you know, we can talk about this, we can work it out,” said John.
“She thought I was dead,” scoffed Ajay. “I might as well have been”
“It was always just the four of us. Always, remember?” said Mary.
“Oh, yeah,” said Ajay.
“So why do you want to kill me?” said Mary.
“Do you know how long they kept me prisoner?” said Ajay. “What they did to me? They tortured Alex to death. I can still hear the sound of his back breaking. But you, you, where were you?”
“That day, at the embassy, I escaped,” said Mary.
“Ha!” scoffed Ajay derisively.
“But I lost sight of you, too. So you explain, where were you?” said Mary, buying for time.
“Oh, I got out. For a while,” said Ajay. “Long enough to hide my memory stick. I didn’t want that to fall into their hands. I was loyal, you see. Loyal to my friends. They took me, tortured me. Not for information. Not for anything except fun.”
(Y/N)’s gaze went to the ground. Even if they didn’t want him to hurt Mary and didn’t agree with going after people without proof, they could understand his pain.
“They thought I’d give in. Die,” continued Ajay. “But I didn’t. I lived. And eventually, they forgot about me rotting in a cell somewhere. Six years they kept me there. Till one day, I saw my chance. Oh, and I made them pay. You know, all the time I was there, I just kept picking up things. Little whispers, laughter, gossip. How the clever agents had been betrayed. Brought down by you!”
“Me?” said Mary. He really believed it, just as (Y/N) said.
A truck passed by, and light circled in. Everyone moved at once. Sherlock handed the gun back to Mary, and Ajay stepped out. They faced each other, guns drawn. John held his own gun at the side, trained on Ajay.
“You know I’ll kill you,” she said. “You know I will, Ajay.”
“What? You think I care if I die?” said Ajay. “I’ve dreamed of killing you. Every night for six years. Squeezing the life out of your treacherous, lying throat.”
“I swear to you, Ajay,” said Mary.
“What did you hear, Ajay?” said (Y/N). If he would just see sense, then maybe they could stop this situation from escalating. “When you were a prisoner, what did you hear that made you think Mary betrayed you? What exactly?” They needed facts, logic.
“Ammo,” said Ajay. “Every day, as they tore into me, ammo, ammo. We were betrayed!”
“And they said it was Mary?” said (Y/N). “They said her name?”
“Yeah, they said it was an Englishwoman,” said Ajay, still glaring at Mary.
There. It couldn’t be certain it was Mary. (Y/N) opened their mouth.
Bang! Bang!
Two shots from the doorway. Ajay fell. He lay unmoving.
“No, no!” Mary fell to her knees next to Ajay.
The policeman who had arrived at the site of the gunshots stared at the scene in front of him. (Y/N)’s eyes softened in sadness. They had been so close.
But too late all the same.

Thousands of doctors across major cities in India, including the capital, New Delhi, on Tuesday, joined in on protests sparked by the alleged rape and murder of a trainee last week.
A 31-year-old female medical trainee was found dead at one of the largest government hospitals in the eastern city of Kolkata on Friday. Her body sustained multiple injuries and an autopsy report described evidence of sexual violence.
After the incident, doctors walked off their jobs at government hospitals, demanding better security and safety measures for health workers. The chief of the institution involved, RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, resigned on Monday.
Protests flare as doctors demand better safety
Protests picked up across government-run facilities in the eastern state of West Bengal, home to Kolkata, on Monday — with doctors saying they would suspend emergency services as well until at least Tuesday.
"As resident doctors, we are on the frontline and deal with lots of patients, which makes us quite vulnerable to these attacks," Doctor Rajat Sharma, vice president of India's Federation of Resident Doctors Association (FORDA), told DW.
"It's a scary situation which we see working on a daily basis. Doctors in West Bengal are protesting for their rights. We want to have better security for our resident doctors."
Around 75% of doctors in India have faced some form of violence, according to a survey by the Indian Medical Association.
Sharma's FORDA colleague Sarvesh Pandey told Indian media that doctors' demands included a specialized law protecting healthcare workers from violence on the job.
"There should be stringent security measures in hospitals and CCTV cameras should be installed," he said.
Students at universities in Kolkata also joined in on protests, demanding better safety measures for women in particular.
Sexual violence against women is a big problem in India.
The National Crimes Records Bureau reported that in 2021, an average of 86 rape cases were registered every day and 49 cases of crime against women lodged every single hour.
Protests spread to major cities, some services hampered
The incident has struck a nerve in the medical community who have repeatedly said they face threats from angry family members, especially in the case of bad news involving medical issues.
In the western Maharashtra state, home to financial capital Mumbai, around 8,000 doctors at government hospitals walked off their jobs on Tuesday.
In New Delhi, junior doctors wearing white coats held banners that read "Doctors are not punching bags" as they sat outside a big government hospital to demand an investigation into the incident.
Protests hampered medical services in the city of Lucknow in the most populous state of Uttar Pradesh, as well as in the popular tourist state of Goa.
How have Indian authorities responded?
The Calcutta High Court on Tuesday ordered the case to be transferred over to a federal agency, meaning that Kolkata police will have to submit all case documents to the agency.
Kolkata police initially set up a special investigative team and arrested a man in connection with the case.
City police chief Vineet Kumar Goyal told reporters a case had been registered against the suspect under provisions of the law relating to rape and murder.
The National Human Rights Commission on Tuesday sent notices to the director general of police and the chief secretary of West Bengal state, asking for a detailed report within two weeks.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee met the family of the victim on Monday, telling reporters later that police were "giving utmost importance to the investigation."

Benefits of UP Government Scholarships for Higher Education
Education is a transformative tool that paves the way for economic and social progress. In Uttar Pradesh, a state with a burgeoning young population, the pursuit of higher education is often hindered by financial constraints. Recognizing this, the UP Government has implemented various scholarship schemes to support students in their academic endeavors. These scholarships not only alleviate financial burdens but also foster a more educated and skilled workforce, contributing significantly to the state's development.
Empowering Economically Disadvantaged Students
One of the primary benefits of UP Government scholarships is the financial support they provide to economically disadvantaged students. Many families in Uttar Pradesh struggle to afford the costs associated with higher education, such as tuition fees, books, and living expenses. Scholarships like the Post-Matric Scholarship for OBC, SC, ST Students and the Dr. Ambedkar National Merit Scholarship help bridge this gap, enabling students from low-income families to pursue their academic goals without the burden of financial stress.
Promoting Educational Equity
The UP Government scholarships are designed to promote educational equity by ensuring that students from marginalized communities have access to higher education. Programs like the Pre-Matric and Post-Matric Scholarships specifically target students from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC). By providing these students with the necessary financial resources, the government helps level the playing field, ensuring that all students, regardless of their socio-economic background, have an equal opportunity to succeed.
Enhancing Academic Performance
Financial constraints often force students to work part-time jobs, which can detract from their academic performance. By alleviating these financial burdens, scholarships allow students to focus more on their studies. Research has shown that students who receive financial aid tend to have better academic outcomes compared to their peers who do not. With the support of UP Government scholarships, students can dedicate more time and energy to their coursework, leading to higher grades and better overall academic performance.
Encouraging Female Education
Another significant benefit of UP Government scholarships is their role in promoting female education. Initiatives like the Kanya Vidya Dhan Yojana are specifically aimed at encouraging girls to pursue higher education. By providing financial incentives, these scholarships help break down the barriers that often prevent girls from continuing their education beyond secondary school. As more women receive higher education, the state benefits from a more diverse and inclusive workforce, driving social and economic progress.
Reducing Dropout Rates
High dropout rates are a major challenge in Uttar Pradesh's education system. Financial difficulties are one of the leading causes of students dropping out of school and college. Scholarships play a crucial role in reducing these dropout rates by providing the necessary financial support to keep students in school. The Pre-Matric and Post-Matric Scholarships have been particularly effective in this regard, helping thousands of students complete their education and pursue successful careers.
Boosting Employment Opportunities
Higher education significantly enhances employability, and scholarships make it possible for more students to attain advanced degrees. The UP Government's focus on providing scholarships for higher education has a direct impact on the state's employment rates. By equipping students with the skills and knowledge needed for the workforce, these scholarships help create a more qualified and competitive labor market. Graduates who benefit from these programs are better positioned to secure well-paying jobs, contributing to the overall economic development of the state.
Fostering Innovation and Research
Scholarships also play a vital role in fostering innovation and research within the state. By supporting students in their pursuit of higher education, the UP Government is investing in the next generation of researchers and innovators. Scholarships like the Chief Minister's Fellowship Scheme provide funding for students to undertake advanced research projects, contributing to the state's academic and technological advancements. This not only enhances the state's reputation as a center for education and innovation but also attracts further investment and development.
Supporting Specialized Education
The UP Government scholarships also support students pursuing specialized fields of study. Scholarships for courses in engineering, medicine, and other professional degrees ensure that students have the resources they need to succeed in these demanding programs. By investing in specialized education, the government is helping to create a workforce that is skilled in critical areas, driving the state's economic and social progress.
Strengthening Community Development
The benefits of scholarships extend beyond individual students to their communities. Educated individuals are more likely to contribute positively to their communities, whether through improved health outcomes, higher levels of civic engagement, or increased economic stability. Scholarships help create a ripple effect, where the benefits of higher education spread throughout communities, fostering development and improving quality of life for all residents.
Encouraging Lifelong Learning
Scholarships also encourage a culture of lifelong learning. By making higher education more accessible, the UP Government is promoting the idea that learning is a continuous process that extends beyond traditional schooling. This culture of lifelong learning helps create a more adaptable and resilient workforce, capable of meeting the challenges of a rapidly changing global economy.
Strengthening Public Trust in Government
Effective scholarship programs can also strengthen public trust in the government. When students and their families see the tangible benefits of these programs, they are more likely to have confidence in the government's commitment to education and social welfare. This trust is crucial for the successful implementation of future policies and programs aimed at improving the state's education system.
Encouraging Diversity and Inclusion
UP Government scholarships promote diversity and inclusion within higher education institutions. By providing financial support to students from various socio-economic backgrounds, these scholarships help create a more diverse student body. This diversity enriches the educational experience for all students, fostering an environment of mutual respect and understanding.
The UP Scholarship 2024 empowers students in Uttar Pradesh by providing financial aid to pursue their educational dreams. Open to various categories including SC/ST, OBC, and minorities, this scholarship promotes equal access to education. Simplified application processes and timely disbursements make it a crucial initiative for nurturing academic talent and reducing financial barriers in the state.
Conclusion
The UP Government scholarships for higher education offer a multitude of benefits that extend beyond the individual recipients. By providing financial support, promoting educational equity, enhancing academic performance, and encouraging female education, these scholarships play a crucial role in the state's development. They help reduce dropout rates, boost employment opportunities, foster innovation, and support specialized education. Moreover, they strengthen community development, encourage lifelong learning, and build public trust in the government. Ultimately, these scholarships are an investment in the future of Uttar Pradesh, creating a more educated, skilled, and prosperous society.

Darshan Hiranandani : Hiranandani Group Unveils Plans for India’s Second Semiconductor Park
In a landmark development for India’s semiconductor industry, the Hiranandani Group, under the leadership of CEO Darshan Hiranandani, has announced plans to establish the country’s second semiconductor park. This ambitious project will be located in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) region, near Noida, Uttar Pradesh. With this initiative, Hiranandani Group aims to position India as a key player in the global semiconductor supply chain.
The proposed park will follow in the footsteps of the semiconductor and display manufacturing facilities already being set up by Vedanta Limited and Taiwanese company Foxconn at the Dholera Special Investment Region (SIR) in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
Hiranandani’s semiconductor arm, Tarq Semiconductors Private Limited, has officially applied for permission under the Indian Semiconductor Mission Scheme, submitting an application to both the Central Government and the Uttar Pradesh government. The company has already paid Rs 50 Lakhs in application fees. Once approved by the Centre, the UP state cabinet will allocate land for the project.
At the UP Global Investors Summit in February 2023, Hiranandani Group signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Uttar Pradesh government, committing to invest INR 170 billion in the development of the semiconductor park. As per the MoU, Tarq Semiconductors will set up advanced ATP (Assembly, Testing, and Packaging) plants for semiconductor production, covering three types of production lines: legacy, mature, and complex. The first ATP plant is set to begin in phase one over the next 24 months, with the second and third plants to follow in the second phase, over a similar timeline. The project is expected to create approximately 1,000 jobs.
In a letter to the CEO of YEIDA, Darshan Hiranandani stated that the initial phase of the project will attract an investment of over Rs 25 billion. He further emphasized that Hiranandani Group has seen great success in Uttar Pradesh through its data centre arm, Yotta Data Services Pvt. Ltd., and is now eager to expand its footprint by diving into the semiconductor sector.
This semiconductor park marks a significant milestone in India’s push to become a global leader in semiconductor manufacturing. Supported by initiatives like the Indian Semiconductor Mission, which aims to foster a robust semiconductor ecosystem within the country, the project aligns with India’s ambitions to reduce its dependence on foreign semiconductor imports.
Darshan Hiranandani - As India continues to draw global investments in the semiconductor industry, Hiranandani Group’s proposed park is set to be a key catalyst in strengthening India’s role in the global semiconductor supply chain. The park is expected to contribute not only to job creation but also to the overall economic development of the region, driving advancements in science and technology.
