X, Y and Z Security Covers

Recently, Mrs. Nita Ambani was all over in news as she has been provided with a ‘Y’ category security cover of CRPF commandos. Earlier, her husband, Mukesh Ambani was provided with a ‘Z’ category security cover. So, isn’t it a bit confusing what is X, Y and Z Security Covers? We got it sorted for you:

Security is provided to VVIPs/VIPs/Politicians/ High-profile celebrities and sportspersons by a few agencies, namely the SPG (Special Protection Group), NSG (National Security Guards), and CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force) along with ITBP (Indo-Tibetian Border Police) and sometimes, local police.

Out of these, only SPG and NSG commandos are allotted to VIPs and VVIPs with Z+ cover.

So, to start with, there are 4 types of security covers provided to high-risk individuals by the police and government in India. They are Z+, Z, Y and X.

Z+ category is the highest a person can get lowering all the way down to X.

Details of the categories are as follows depending on the level of threat:

Z+ category:

  1. Provided to VIPs and VVIPs.
  2. Has a security cover of over 36 personnel.
  3. Guarded extensively by NSG.
  4. NSG with Special Protection Group (SPG) guards the Prime Minister, former PMs and their immediate family members.
  5. Round the clock personal security.
  6. Contains 28 NSG commandos, an escort, a pilot and tailing vehicles, Cobra commandos and 12 home guards.X, Y and Z Security Covers

Z category:

  2. Entails 2 Personal Security Officers (PSOs) and one escort car to an individual.
  3. Has a security cover of 22 personnel including a pilot.

  3. Has a security cover of 2 personnel.

The individuals covered under the security blankets include The President, Vice-President, Prime-Minister, Supreme Court and High Court judges, Governors of states, Chief Ministers and cabinet ministers and the service chiefs of the Indian Armed Forces.

The Intelligence Bureau (IB) along with the home secretary and the home minister decides whether a person should get a security cover and if yes, then which category to be allotted.

There have also been instances where security was provided on recommendations of the state government.

So, all the uproar making sense now?

DELHI POLICE THRASHED 15-YEAR-OLD ARMY son

A 15-year-old boy, son of a serving Colonel of Indian Army, was allegedly thrashed near Dhaula Kuan by two Delhi Police personnel posted to ensure smooth passage of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s cavalcade on Tuesday evening. Kislay Mudgal, who lives with his family at Dwarka Sector 21, had gone to Dhaula Kuan to play basketball around 5 pm. He was waiting for a car sent by his father to pick him up when the two policemen allegedly confronted and asked him to move away.

“He was waiting for the vehicle when the two cops bullied him. When he reacted to it saying they cannot treat him like that they pushed him and then started slapping him repeatedly on the face and back,” alleged Viplav Thakur, the boy’s uncle. He also alleged the policemen dragged him inside the Dhaula Kuan police Chowki and beat him up. “As he was hit by the cops, his braces came out with blood in his mouth and his spectacles and mobile phone were also damaged,” Thakur alleged.

“A young woman who tried to intervene admonishing the policemen for treating the boy brutally, was also misbehaved with by them. The woman later called Colonel Kunal and gave all the details to him,” he said. Father of the boy, along with his colleagues and relatives, went to the police station to lodge a complaint. A senior Delhi Traffic Police official confirmed that the incident occurred around the time PM’s cavalcade was to pass from there. The incident was also captured in the CCTV cameras. Senior police officers also confirmed the incident saying the guilty head constable identified as Rajendra Kumar has been shifted to police lines and further enquiry is being conducted.

10 Things To Bear In Mind If You Have Got A Military Beau

Military Beau

Having a military beau is pretty amazing but all good things do come with their downsides as well. Nonetheless you do have a man who is going to look after you like anything. Following are a few points that you should keep in mind if your romantic interest is a “man in uniform.”

 

#10 loneliness

He is duty bound and will always give priority to his work. You would always be his second  priority after his beloved country, or wait, may be you actually hit the rock bottom of the priority list with country topping followed by the family and friends. Not that he does not love you enough, just that he himself dos not have time for his own life. So, long hours of training and combative exercises take a toll on your relationship.

#9 An early riser

Second point on the list ten things to bear in mind if you have got a military beau is waking up in the wee hours. No matter if you are a night owl or you love waking up late in the morning, to keep pace with your beau, you eventually will start learning to admire the first rays of sun and fall in love with the morning freshness.

#8 Quality work out

The best part of having a military man is one  commences liking the much hated cardio, aerobics, jogging, running and whole host of other variety of workout sessions available.. Working out seems fun and adorable when you have a man around you who is so used to his military drills that no matter what you do is a joke for him. . After a while even if he is unavailable you would enjoy it solitary.

#7 This is the diet

When talking of ten things to bear in mind if you have got a military beau, how could we not mention the diet? The quality of food you consume, the choices you make with respect to the food that goes in your stomach will improve significantly . From junk, fast food: you would switch to much healthier, fulfilling and quality choices. Thanks to your military man where gluten and carbs will rarely get a chance to glide through your esophagus.

#6 Responsible

Everything around is systematic and methodical. You cannot go on with your rough, haphazard ways. You would learn to be more responsible and careful with your dealings and realize that you are maturing up. (a person you never were before or a person you could be?) Consistent trotting around the globe, will teach you how to look after your luggage,

#5 Independence

He is going to be so very unavailable that he would mostly be  absent from your lives. Your best moments including your birthdays, anniversaries, the grand champagne busting success, everything is to be celebrated alone and also the sorrows, a bad day, tears, flak and hatred, everything is to be managed all by yourselves and independently which of course makes you emotionally vulnerable in the beginning but strong in the end. A point that I pretty much detest scribing on the ten things to bear in mind if you have got a military beau.

#4 A classy lady

Even if you are raised a tom boy and have male like cognitive skills (that’s mostly me), your military man will make you realize every now and then that you are a lady.  He literally will always think that you can not keep pace up with his mental and physical standards and you would always be his little kid and he your man of the dreams.

#3 A patient listener

You can rabbit endlessly and he would give you a patient listening even though he is very much aware of what is going on in your head and he actually is aware of all the crap you rant or are about to, yet he would act as naive as he can to let you puke out everything.

#2 Workaholic

You can not afford to be a couch potato being a military love. Seeing your man engaging in dozens of activities, nailing every hurdle smoothly will give you hell lot of goose bumps. Gradually you would learn to keep yourself busy, multi task in a fast and ferocious manner similar to him and would love being a workaholic which is a good thing actually.

#1 Mentally strong

If you are anything like me, you would love to compete and a military man is hell strong mentally with very sharp cognitive skills. Once you start competing against to defeat him on the mental fronts (which will never happen though), you would realize that you have turned smarter than you ever were. Your judgment, decision making, problem solving skills, reaction time go a notch higher. I had to being mental strength on ten things to bear in mind if you have got a military beau.

In a nutshell do not forget thanking him for all the lessons your military man teaches you while being both available and unavailable in both a direct and in an indirect fashion. It is a mixture of positive and negative emotions and they are just the moments, and as they say, “it shall pass too.”

Thanks, Love and Peace – PALAK GUPTA
