In a major overhaul of security drill for VIPs, NSG’s elite ‘Black Cat’ commandos are likely to be withdrawn for Chattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh and RJD Supremo Lalu Prasad even as Sardaha scam accused Mantang Sinh will continue to enjoy Z-plus cover.
At a recent meeting chaired by Union Home Secretary L C Goyal, where threat perception of all the protectees was discussed, it was decided that persons like Punjab’s former top cop K P S Gill, Union Ministers Nitin Gadkari and Jitendra Singh will enjoy Z-Plus security throught the country.
Sources said on Friday a decision to withdraw elite NSG commandos for Lalu Prasad and surprisingly for Raman Singh, who faces serious threat from Naxalites, has been taken but no formal order was issued so far.
