Jagan Reddy Files Writ Petition to Restore Full Security Cover

Deccan Chronicle  

Vijayawada: Former chief minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has filed a writ petition in the High Court on Monday, seeking restoration of his security cover to the levels that existed on June 3, 2024. Seeking a court directive to the state government, Jagan Reddy stressed the importance of the security cover he had as chief minister. Now leading his party’s MLAs in the assembly, Jagan Reddy noted that the category of protection for him has not been downgraded from the highest, namely Zplus. Jagan said, “In reality, only 2 personal security officers guard me at any given point of time.” Notably, in 2019, Jagan Reddy was attacked with a cock-fighting knife at the Vishakapatnam airport, resulting in a lacerated injury on his shoulder and a surgery.
