  • Centre accords ‘X’ category CRPF armed security to four BJP leaders in Punjab

    Centre accords ‘X’ category CRPF armed security to four BJP leaders in Punjab

    [ad_1]

    Four Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders have been given ‘X’ category armed security protection by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) by the Central government, top government sources claimed on Saturday.

    After conducting a security analysis based on an Intelligence Bureau (IB) report indicating a threat to senior BJP leaders, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) ordered the CRPF to give “X-category” round-the-clock protection, reports news agency ANI.

    Among the BJP heavyweights who supplied the security protection were former Punjab cabinet ministers Balbir Singh Sidhu and Gurpreet Singh Kanga, former MLA Jagdip Singh Nakai, and Amarjit Singh Tikka. All four leaders recently left the Congress and joined the BJP.

    In October, the Centre also gave five BJP leaders in Punjab “Y” category security coverage based on a related IB report.

    As a result of threat assessments based on IB reports, the MHA used to offer security services in the “X,” “Y,” “Y+,” “Z,” and “Z+” categories through Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) like the CRPF and Central Industrial Security Force (CISF).

    VIP security protection has been entrusted to the CISF and CRPF by the MHA. Each of the two paramilitary organisations has its own elite VIP security division of commandos that is equipped with cutting-edge close-protection weapons.
