CM Mann gets Z Plus protection
According to sources within the jail, the Punjab Police’s top goal during the discussion was to comprehend the jail’s security system while keeping the Chief Minister’s protection in mind. He asked the jail administration for details regarding the security measures in place both inside and outside the facility. The jail administration informed him about the facility’s multi-layered security system.
The jail administration also informed him that the Punjab Chief Minister’s Z-plus protection included CRPF soldiers. In order to maintain the security of the jail, CRPF men are also stationed here. That is, coordinating work will be simple if there is an agency protected by both.
