India / Ministry of Home Affairs sets up panel to probe serious lapses in security during PM Narendra Modi visit

New Delhi : The Home Ministry has constituted a committee to inquire into the security lapse during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Punjab. The three-member committee will be headed by Cabinet Secretariat Secretary (Security) Sudhir Kumar Saxena. Apart from this, IB Joint Director Balbir Singh and SPG IG S Suresh are included in the committee.

Let us tell you that there was an incident of 'serious lapse' in the security of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was visiting Punjab, when some protesters in Ferozepur blocked the road through which they were to pass. Because of this, the Prime Minister was stuck on a flyover for about 20 minutes. After the incident, the Prime Minister returned to Delhi without attending any program.

The central government has blamed the Congress government of Punjab for this incident and has called for a report from it. The Union Home Ministry has directed the state government to submit a report immediately saying that it did not ensure the necessary deployment, while Home Minister Amit Shah said that such negligence in the security process during the visit of the Prime Minister is completely unacceptable. And accountability will be fixed.
