    Government to seek SC’s nod in Kalia’s case
  • Taking a U-turn, the Central Government has decided to seek the SC's nod for moving the case of Captain Saurabh Kalia's death to the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

    Captain Kalia had been killed by Pakistani soldiers during the Kargil war.

    Since both are commonwealth nations, India and Pakistan can't approach ICJ against each other.

    But this case is exceptional, according to the Government.
