Rajya Sabha asks MPs to not use 'Yours faithfully' in forms
On the direction of Rajya Sabha Chairman Venkaiah Naidu, a circular has asked parliamentarians to replace the phrase 'Yours faithfully' with 'Yours sincerely' in all notice and request forms. The direction is also applicable on forms in Hindi format. Last year, Naidu asked MPs to discard the colonial tradition of saying "I beg to" while laying papers on the table.
