Police deploy 1,500 to protect ministers on a ratio of 1 to 6!

It is reported that the IGP has instructed the Ministerial Security Division to deploy six police officers including one Sub Inspector for each Member of Parliament for the security of the Members of Parliament.

Members of Parliament have also been given the opportunity to attach their preferred officers from the local police stations to the Ministerial Security Division and use them for their own security.

If more than 06 security personnel are not assigned for protection for a parliamentarian, the IGP has instructed to look into this matter and if any MP is refusing such security of six police men, to obtain their decision in writing.
This step is expected to be enforced from today.
