State police, however, denied there was any breach of security but said one Congress worker has been apprehended in this connection, while three other party workers were arrested for trying to enter the airport with black balloons.바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트Krishna district Superintendent of Police P Joshua said바카라 웹사이트that there was no security breach at the airport.

The Prime Minister라이브 바카라 trip ended without incident, much to the relief of everyone but the SPG that is in charge of his security is said to have taken a serious view of it and sought an explanation from the state.
This is not the first time that the PM's security has made it to the headlines.바카라 웹사이트
Punjab protests: In January this year, a major lapse in the Prime Minister's security became national news after his convoy was stopped by protesting farmers on. highway in Punjab.바카라 웹사이트On 5th January, PM라이브 바카라 cavalcade was stranded for 15-20 Minutes after바카라 웹사이트protesting farmers blocked PM라이브 바카라 convoy when he was on his way to National Martyrs Memorial at the Hussainiwala border with Pakistan.
Stuck in traffic: In December 2017, when PM was visiting Noida, two policemen in charge of piloting PM Modi라이브 바카라 cavalcade took the wrong route and his convoy was stuck for around two minutes in a traffic Jam at Mahamaya Flyover. SSP Love Kumar immediately suspended Sub Inspector Dilip Singh and police driver Jaipal.
Heckler on stage: In 2014, at the event of the Maharashtra government라이브 바카라 swearing-in ceremony, former BJP activist Anil Mishra climbed the podium of the event and breached the PM's security cover. Mumbai Police took this matter seriously and suspended a police inspector and two constables and launched an internal inquiry. Three policemen, including a police inspector and two constables, were found guilty on charges of negligence that led to the breach.
The responsibility of the PM's security lies with the Special Protection Group (SPG). SPG came into being with the SPG Act 1988 with the aim of providing바카라 웹사이트“cover to the Prime Minister, former Prime Minister and their immediate family members up to 5 years after ceasing post if they are residing at the residence allotted.” SPG functions under the cabinet secretariat.
SPG ACT laid down the provision of “proximate security”. This means, “protection provided from close quarters, during a journey by road, rail, aircraft, watercraft, or on foot, or any other means of transport and shall include the places of functions, engagements, residence or halt and shall comprise ring round teams, isolation cordons, the sterile zone around, and the rostrum and access control to the person or members of his immediate family.”
The latest controversy is over the alleged leaking of the PM's route and the accountability of the state government. The SPG Act clearly says that the state government is responsible for assisting SPG groups.
