Security Enhanced for Union Minister Ram Mohan Naidu

The Union Minister for Civil Aviation, Ram Mohan Naidu, has been accorded enhanced security. Previously under Y-category protection, the minister’s security cover has now been upgraded to Y-Plus category. As per the revised arrangements, the state government will provide two gunmen, while the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) will deploy two additional personnel, bringing the total number of security staff to four.

Following this decision, the Chief Security Officer appointed by the central government and a CRPF commando formally assumed duty on Thursday to oversee the minister's protection.
