Remove PM's Photo & Slogan From Court's Official Email: SC To NIC

The slogan and the picture were put inadvertently by National Informatics Centre (NIC) which provides the e-mail services to the top court.

New Delhi: The Supreme Court directed the National Informatics Centre (NIC) to remove the Sabka Sath, Saath, Sabka Vikas' slogan & the prime minister's picture being carried as a footer on apex court's official e-mails putting the controversy to rest.

The top court asked NIC to replace it with an image of the Supreme Court instead.

According to PTI sources, the slogan and the picture were put inadvertently by National Informatics Centre (NIC) which provides the e-mail services to the top court. A controversy, out of an inadvertent error, has been sought to be created by some, they said.

Late Thursday evening, it was brought to the notice of the Registry of the Supreme Court of India that the official e-mails of the Supreme Court of India were carrying an image as footer which has no connection whatsoever with the functioning of the Judiciary, said a clarificatory note issued by an official.

The biggest concern was that it would damage perceptions about the judiciary's independence from the central government. 

The NIC, which was directed to drop that image from the footer of the e-mails originating from the Supreme Court, has replaced them with the picture of the top court, sources told PTI. 

An official also shared the screenshot of the e-mail from @sci.nic.in carrying the image of the court instead of the slogan and the picture of the prime minister, reported PTI.
