The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has decided to provide Z-category security to Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president K Annamalai. He is provided Y-category security at present.
The decision was taken based on a report from the Intelligence Bureau (IB). It said that Annamalai faced increased threats from religious extremists and Maoists.
According to a report by India Today, a total of 33 personnel from the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) would be tasked with providing security to him.
Few days back Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) faction leader Chirag Paswan and Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai too were provided with Z-category security.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
