Wow! 10 CRPF commandos to guard Nita Ambani as she gets VVIP cover

July 26, 2016

New Delhi, Jul 26: After Reliance Industries Limited Chairman Mukesh Ambani was accorded a Z' category security few years ago, the government has now granted Y' category security cover of armed CRPF commandos to his wife Nita Ambani.

ambaniOfficials said on Monday that Nita has recently been provided a full Y' cover of about ten armed men who would be travelling with her every time she is mobile.

They said a threat assessment report prepared by central security agencies reported requirement of a special security cover for her after which the Union home ministry sanctioned the protection.

As her husband was already a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) protectee, the new responsibility was entrusted to the country's largest paramilitary as “logistical arrangements” would be easy to do, they said.

“The security cover will be fully paid for, like in the case of her husband. A team of about 10 CRPF commandos with an escort vehicle will secure the new protectee,” they added.

The business tycoon couple are possibly the only private corporate entity to be accorded government VVIP security cover after the Union home ministry had first approved the facility for country's richest business leader (Mukesh Ambani) in 2013.

It was then reasoned that Mukesh Ambani is under potential' threat and private security guards cannot perform the task of securing him as they are not allowed to carry weapons of higher calibre and sophistication.

Under the Z' category security, Ambani has a pilot and escort vehicle with commandos armed with sophisticated weapons who give him proximate security every time he moves in Mumbai, where he is based, or any other part of country.

Y' is a scaled down category but the commandos are similarly armed, they said.

The Z' category is the second highest VVIP security cover after the Z+' bracket that has about 40 commandos for the protectee. CRPF is providing VVIP security cover to as many as 58 protectee.

Center should reseve one complete batallion around ambani Villa to protect everyone staying there including dogs / cats / rats. BJP is returning the donations received from Ambai with highest interest. many more VVIPS lke Bajaj, Tatas, Adanis will receive same security soon as BJP Govt is not bothered about the tax we will pay and it will try to give more and more happiness to these Business terrorists.

Shivamogga, Jul 24: The protest by Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA) under the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) entered its 14th day on Friday demanding personal protective equipment (PPE) kits and a salary of at least Rs 12,000 per month.

They have been protesting in different parts of Karnataka since July 10.

Staging a protest in front of the deputy commissioner's office, the ASHA workers complained of the government turning a deaf ear to their problems.

Clad in their signature pink saris, they raised slogans to demand appropriate salary for their work and the necessary equipment to protect them from the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. 

They said that they worked tirelessly during the COVID-19-induced lockdown without any safety. The department only provided them with sub-standard equipment to combat the deadly virus. All they were asking for is a basic pay of Rs 12,000 against the current pay of Rs 6,000.

Prema, an ASHA said, "The authorities are praising our work, clapping for us and showering flowers on us but are not listening to our grievances."

Mandya, Jun 28: Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised an 83-year-old farmer from Malavalli taluk in Mandya district of Karnataka for his efforts in water conservation.

While urging the people to focus on saving water, Modi, in his 'Man Ki Baat' on All India Radio quoted Kamegowda from Dasna Doddi village who single handedly dug small 16 ponds over the years in his farm land and in nearby hill while taking his animals for grazing.

"Kamegowda ji is an ordinary farmer, albeit possessing an extraordinary personality. He has achieved a personal feat that will leave anyone awestruck! Kamegowda ji, aged 80-85 takes out his animals for grazing but at the same time he has taken it upon himself to build new ponds in his area", the PM said in his Mann Ki Baat, a monthly radio address on Sunday.

To overcome problems of water scarcity in the area, Gowda started building small ponds. Thereby, he contributed a lot for water conservation, the PM said.

"... An octagenerarian like Kamegowda ji, till now, has dug 16 ponds through his hard work and the sweat of his brow. It is possible that the ponds he has constructed may not be very big but then his efforts are huge. Today, the entire area has got a new lease of life on account of these ponds," the PM said.

A little effort by us helps nature and environment quite significantly. Many of our countrymen are putting extraordinary efforts in this endeavour, the PM said. 

Kamegowda, used to take his sheep and goats to nearby hill for grazing. After finding no water to sheeps, he started digging ponds to address water scarcity. With collection of rain water, these lakes are brimming with water even during peak summer.
