The Defence Ministry's zero-tolerance policy on corruption was put into action as a lieutenant colonel was apprehended for accepting a bribe. Senior officials emphasized the government's commitment to eradicate corruption through strong legal measures.

Lt Col Deepak Kumar Sharma, stationed in the Department of Defence Production, was caught accepting Rs 3 lakh in bribe from a company based in Bengaluru. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had registered the case against Sharma and his wife, highlighting a criminal conspiracy involving a Dubai-based logistics firm.
