Centre sanctions Y-plus category security to Kangana Ranaut

The Centre on Monday sanctioned 'Y-plus' security cover to film actress Kangana Ranaut. The decision to grant her ‘Y-plus’ security comes in the wake of threat perception to her. Ranaut will now have two Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) commandos protecting her all the time. Besides one CRPF personnel shall be deployed at her residence on a round the clock basis. The actress will have a total of 11 CRPF personnel in her security duty which includes 5 static guards and 6 commandos armed with automatic weapons.

The Central protective cover will bring the Mumbai police under obligation to provide the necessary logistical support and assistance to CRPF for managing Ranaut’s security cover.

It may be mentioned that Ranaut's comment comparing Mumbai to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, made in context of her criticism of Mumbai police's investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput's death by hanging, had riled many, including politicians from the ruling dispensation in Maharashtra.
