PM Modi's Security Breach LIVE Updates: A "serious security lapse" happened when Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was scheduled to visit Ferozepur yesterday, was stuck on a flyover for 15-20 minutes.
A high-level team to probe security lapses into Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit has been set by the Punjab government today. The committee will submit a report in three days.
A "serious security lapse" happened when Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was scheduled to visit Ferozepur yesterday, was stuck on a flyover for 15-20 minutes, the Home Ministry said in a statement yesterday, seeking a report from the Punjab government.
PM Modi landed at Bathinda on Wednesday morning from where he was to go to the National Martyrs Memorial at Hussainiwala by helicopter. Due to rain and poor visibility, the Prime Minister waited for about 20 minutes for the weather to clear out.
When the weather did not improve, it was decided that PM Modi would visit the National Martyrs Memorial via road, which would take more than two hours. PM Modi proceeded to travel by road after necessary security arrangements were made.
