    We should not accept any politician, bureaucrat or any civilian to salute us or our martyrs in unsocial dress and without a head gear. We are not police to downgrade our discipline and military standards. Kindly address this issue to every one in the country. In the photo given above there some people in civil clothes nicely dressed but they feel shy of saluting to martyrs. This should not happen again.

    Not agreed. A civ can salute w/o headgear. As regards non saluting, all in civ dress should salute.
