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.

Bengaluru, Jan 15: The on-going process to select a new Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president is likely to drag on for few more days with former CM and opposition leader Siddaramaiah making a strong pitch for former minister MB Patil over DK Shivakumar for the post.

Siddaramaiah, who met AICC president Sonia Gandhi and other senior Congress leaders in New Delhi on Tuesday, reportedly argued in favour of Patil, saying his elevation would help the party win Lingayats to the fold.

“Yediyurappa, the undisputed leader of the Lingayat community, is almost at the end of his career and it is an opportunity for the Congress to gain the confidence of the community. Being a leader from North Karnataka, Patil fits the bill perfectly,” Siddaramaiah reportedly told Sonia.

Siddaramaiah is said to be backing Patil over Shivakumar as he is worried about losing his hold over the state unit, given Shivakumar’s popularity. While Sonia did give the former CM a patient hearing, she is said to have told him that he should obey and cooperate with whatever decision high command takes.

The high command is looking to evolve consensus on the new state president. “Sonia’s meeting with Siddaramaiah is part of this exercise. She wants to keep everybody in the loop,” said a functionary.

Siddaramaiah also met senior leaders Ahmed Patel and AK Anthony. He is expected to meet former AICC president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday.

However, some including Mallikarjun Kharge and Shamanur Shivashankarappa have expressed reservations against Patil’s elevation, pointing to his role in the controversial separate Lingayat religion issue which dented the Congress’ prospects in the 2018 assembly polls.

“He has a very bad name among Lingayats and making him president would prove counter-productive. Moreover, it is difficult to win back Lingayats as long as Yediyurappa is active in politics,” said a senior Congress leader.

Another functionary said a majority of state functionaries — and even some in the high command — favour Shivakumar as he is not only “resourceful”, but also has momentum. “With HD Deve Gowda and HD Kumaraswamy losing popularity among Vokkaligas, the possibility of the community backing Shivakumar is high. This may land him the top job,” the functionary said.
