New Delhi: In response to Congress general secretary KC Venugopal’s letter to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, alleging that Delhi Police had completely failed to ensure Rahul Gandhi’s security as the Bharat Jodo Yatra passed through the capital, central paramilitary force CRPF has said Rahul Gandhi broke security protocol on several occasions during the Delhi leg of Bharat Jodo Yatra on December 24.

The CRPF has said in its rebuttal that the CRPF makes security arrangements for Rahul Gandhi in coordination with state police and other agencies. The force said that an Advance Security Liaison for the December 24 event was held two days earlier. An Advance Security Liaison refers to a meeting of security agencies to plan a VIP’s security for a major event. The CRPF said that all security guidelines were strictly followed on the day of the march and Delhi Police informed that sufficient deployment of security personnel was made, NDTV reported.

Accusing Rahul Gandhi of repeatedly breaking security protocol, he was quoted as saying, “Security arrangements made for the protectee works fine when the protectee himself adheres to the security guidelines laid down. However, it is pointed out that on several occasions violations of laid down guidelines on the part of Shri Rahul Gandhi have been observed and this fact has been communicated to him from time to time.”

The paramilitary force said Rahul Gandhi had broken protocol 113 times since 2020. “It may further be mentioned that during the Delhi leg of Bharat Jodo Yatra, the protectee has violated security guidelines and CRPF will be taking up this matter separately,” it added.
