43 BJP Leaders in Bastar get Security Cover After Naxal Threat

Deccan Chronicle  

Raipur: Chhattisgarh government has provided security cover to 43 BJP leaders in Leftwing extremism-hit Bastar in the state in the wake of sudden spate of killing of ruling party leaders in the region in recent times. The development comes three days after a local leader in Bijapur district under south Bastar in Chhattisgarh made an appeal to Union home minister Amit Shah to provide them security following the killing of two BJP leaders within a span of a week in the current month in the district. The 43 BJP leaders will be provided security under categories of Y, Y+ and X considering the scale of threat perception to the individual leaders from Maoists, a senior police officer said on Sunday. The Chhattisgarh police will arrange security for each of these 43 BJP leaders as per their assigned categories of security cover, the police officer said. Of the 43 BJP leaders who have been provided security, six are from Sukma district, ten from Bijapur district, 17 from Dantewada district, four from Jagdalpur, headquarters of Bastar, one from Kondagaon district, four from Kanker district and one from Narayanpur district.
