A new directive mandates that prior written permission is required for the use of photos and messages of the Prime Minister and ministers at events organized by government institutions.

Communicated by Prime Minister's Secretary Pradeep Saputhanthri, this policy aims to ensure the responsible use of public funds and compliance with government regulations.
To use the Prime Minister's images or messages, requests must be submitted to the Prime Minister's Office, while permissions for ministers’ content must be obtained from the respective ministries.
