Apart from Amruta Fadnavis, Mumbai Police also provided Y+ security cover to actor Salman Khan following threats from gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and his associates.
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis's wife Amruta Fadnavis on Wednesday requested Mumbai Police to not send a traffic clearance pilot vehicle as part of her security upgrade cleared by the state's Home Department, led by her husband.
Amruta Fadnavis, a banker by profession, said though the traffic condition in Mumbai is "frustrating", things are likely to change for the better because of infrastructure development projects of the state government.
"I'm & wish to live like common citizen of #Mumbai I humbly request @MumbaiPolice not to provide me traffic clearance pilot vehicle. Traffic condition in Mumbai is frustrating but I'm sure,with Infra & development projects by @mieknathshinde & @Dev_Fadnavis we will soon get relief," she tweeted, tagging a report which said the state government recently allotted a 'traffic clearance vehicle' along with a security upgrade from X to Y+ with escort to her.
The upgrade to Y+ with escort category comes with security of an escort vehicle and five policemen round the clock. Such a vehicle performs duties similar to a pilot vehicle, clearing road traffic for the protectee during travel.
