Bhubaneswar: Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik reacted to the breach of security incident involving Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to Punjab on Wednesday.
Naveen tweeted: The Prime Minister of India is an institution. It is the duty of every Government to provide foolproof security and safeguard the dignity of this institution. Anything contrary should be unacceptable in our democracy
Appreciating the Chief Minister’s concern for the Prime Minister’s security breach, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan stated in a tweet:
This is how a democracy like in India should function. We all can have differing ideologies, beliefs & opinions but that can be no ground to legitimise a breach in security for the Prime Minister.
On Wednesday, while on way to address a political rally in Ferozepur, Punjab, the Prime Minister was stuck on a flyover in Punjab’s Bathinda for around 20 minutes. Then security lapse has caused a major political conflagration between the BJP and the state’s ruling Congress and the matter reached the Supreme Court on Thursday. Punjab government has ordered an inquiry into it.
