Following the lapse in security of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s ongoing ‘Memantha Siddham’ Bus Yatra, Director General of Police (DGP) K. Rajendranath Reddy on Saturday ordered the jurisdictional officers such as Commissioners of Police (CPs) and Superintendents of Police (SPs) to position themselves at the campaigning vehicle’s door to manage the rope parties.
The order maintained that the CPs and SPs must reach the entrance of the bus or campaigning vehicle and set the rope parties in position as soon as the vehicle stops. They have also been asked to perform ring-around duty in civil clothes both on rooftops and near the entrances of the campaigning vehicles.
Mr. Rajendranath Reddy highlighted that the rope party personnel stood far off into the crowd, enabling people to get close to the Chief Minister. He further ordered rope parties to surround the campaigning vehicle occupied by Jagan from all four directions.
