Commander Tiwari, 15th PBD awardee, awaits return from Doha whilst 18th PBD is celebrated



“The Emir of Qatar pardoned all eight naval veterans, and while seven of them returned to India in February 2024, we urge the government to facilitate our brother’s return as well. His 86-year-old mother is eagerly awaiting his return,” Bhargava added.It may be recalled that the eight Indian naval veterans, who had been working for a company called Dhara in Doha, were arrested on August 29, 2022, and kept in solitary confinement, followed by a 17-month jail term.Qatar’s court initially announced a death sentence for all eight, which was later reversed, leading to their eventual release.While seven of them have returned to India, there is still no clarity on when Commander Tiwari will be allowed to return.
