law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Tuesday said a host of issues, including those involving the differently-abled and elderly people, had cropped up following the Supreme Court order asking cinema halls to play the national anthem before screening a film, while asserting that the Centre's commitment to "Jana Gana Mana" was complete.
The apex court today modified its earlier order and made it optional for the cinema halls to play the national anthem.
Prasad told reporters that a government committee would go into the "details of the whole ambit of the matter" and submit its recommendations to the Supreme Court.
