PM Modi Dons Sikh Cadet Turban At Today’s NCC Rally

ꦆPrime Minister Narendra Modi during the Republic Day parade was seen wearing traditional cap of Uttarakhand.

🌄Two days after donning the traditional cap of Uttarakhand and a stole from Manipur during the Republic Day parade, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wore a Sikh cadet turban while attending a rally of the National Cadet Corps (NCC) in Delhi on Friday.

🐽Modi wore a rifle-green turban with a red-coloured feather -- similar to how Sikh cadets wear it in the NCC --  for Friday's rally at the Cariappa parade ground here.

꧋On January 26, Modi had ditched his traditional turban look and wore a traditional cap from Uttarakhand with an image of the brahmakamal, the state flower, and sported a stole from Manipur.

♕Official sources had said that Modi uses the brahmakamal whenever he offers prayers at Kedarnath.

🌼Punjab, Uttarakhand and Manipur are among the five states that head for polls next month.

🌼Turbans have been a highlight of the prime minister's sartorial choices at Independence Day and Republic Day events.

༺Last year, he sported a a special turban from Gujarat's Jamnagar on 72nd Republic Day. On Independence Day last year, he chose a saffron headgear with red patterns and a long plume.

💧For his maiden Independence Day speech in 2014, he had opted for a bright red Jodhpuri bandhej turban with green at the tail.

🅰In 2015, he chose a yellow turban covered with multi-coloured crisscross lines, and a tie and dye turban in hues of pink and yellow in 2016.

The prime minister's turban for 2017 was a mix of bright red and yellow with crisscrossed golden lines all over. He donned a saffron turban for his appearance at the Red Fort in 2018.
