The reply comes after the Delhi High Court had asked Centre to allow the wife of the jawan to meet and stay with him. The court further asked, why Yadav’s wife had not been allowed to meet him at the new battalion camp. The plea alleged that the jawan had been illegally detained after the video regarding bad food being served to jawan's went viral. However, the BSF advocate asserted that Yadav’s wife's claims are unfounded and also submitted call details of the jawan speaking to his family. The high court bench asked the authorities concerned to provide the wife the mobile number of her husband along with the present address of posting.
