Parliament Security Breach: Lok Sabha Secretariat Suspends 8 Personnel Over Safety Lapse
New Delhi: In response to the massive security breach in Parliament on the 22nd anniversary of the 2001 Parliament terror attack a day ago, the Lok Sabha Secretariat on Thursday took swift action by suspending eight personnel involved in the security. The individuals suspended are identified as Rampal, Arvind, Vir Das, Ganesh, Anil, Pradeep, Vimitt, and Narendra.
Details On The Breach Incident
During Zero Hour on Wednesday, two individuals Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D breached security protocols by jumping into the Lok Sabha chamber from the public gallery. The intruders, in an alarming move, released yellow gas from canisters and shouted slogans before being subdued by MPs present in the chamber.
The accused concealed a substance in their shoes, later exposing it through friction, resulting in the release of the gas. This unexpected attack prompted all MPs to swiftly vacate the premises for safety. Some reported irritation in their eyes due to the gas while others overpowered them.
Security Measures & Detention
Prompt action by security personnel led to the detention of the intruders within the House. They were later brought out of the premises. Meanwhile, outside Parliament, another incident unfolded near the Transport Bhawan, where a man and a woman, identified as Neelam (42, from Hisar, Haryana) and Amol Shinde (25, from Latur, Maharashtra), respectively, were apprehended for similar disruptive acts. The duo was protesting with coloured smoke and slogans. Both were held by local police near the Transport Bhawan outside the Parliament building.
MHA Orders Probe
The Ministry of Home Affairs on Wednesday ordered an inquiry into a parliament security breach incident. Lok Sabha Secretary General wrote to the Home Ministry to conduct a high-level inquiry into the entire incident.
MHA has posted on X, “On request from Lok Sabha Secretariat, MHA has ordered an enquiry of parliament security breach incident. An Enquiry Committee has been set up under Anish Dayal Singh, DG, CRPF, with members from other security agencies and experts.”
“Enquiry Committee will investigate into the reasons for breaches in the security of Parliament, identify lapses and recommend further action. The Committee will submit its report with recommendations, including suggestions on improving security in Parliament, at the earliest,” mentioned in the X.

West Bengal: Youth Arrested For Rape Of Deaf & Mute Woman In South 24 Parganas’ Kultali
Kolkata: A youth was arrested on the charges of raping a deaf and mute woman at a deserted building in Kultali in South 24 Parganas district of West Bengal.
Even as the main accused in the case has been arrested, the local people had been agitating claiming that a local Trinamool Congress panchayat chief Prahlad Nashkar allegedly pressurised family members of the victim to settle the matter against Rs 2,00,000.
However, Nashkar has denied the allegations, saying he was the first to reach the spot and inform the family members of the victim about the incident.
Complaint Filed
The victim’s family members filed a complaint on Wednesday evening. Thereafter, the police started an investigation and based on circumstantial evidence, the accused youth was arrested.
He will be presented at a district court in South 24 Parganas on Thursday only and the public prosecutor will seek his police custody, a district police official said.
Part Of Kultali & Jaynagar Turn Into Virtual Battlefields
In the first week of this month, part of Kultali and adjacent Jaynagar turned into virtual battlefields over violent protests by the local people over the rape and murder of a minor girl there.
At that point in time, the main allegation of the local people was against the police and the latter ignored the missing complaint by the parents of the victim. The local people also alleged that had the police been active in tracking the victim minor, the heinous crime could have been averted.
The protesters became violent and attacked the police station. A local police camp was ransacked and set on fire. The police had to resort to massive lathi-charge to dispel the mob then.
