Mumbai: Flaying Maharashtra Government for
its `laidback` approach on security, Leader of Opposition
Eknath Khadse on Monday said the panel set up to study "all
aspects" of the Pradhan committee`s 26/11 report, has not met
even once.
Maharashtra government had in December tabled in the
state assembly the Ram Pradhan committee report on 26/11
Mumbai attacks and informed the House that a 16-member panel,
comprising the chief minister, will study all aspects of the
report including its "leakage" in media.
"The study panel has not met even once," Khadse told
reporters. "This just shows the state government`s laidback
approach to deal with flaws in security apparatus, highlighted
by the Pune blast," he said.
The Pradhan committee report went into the response by
the police to the 26/11 attacks and pointed out "total
confusion" in processing of Intelligence alerts at the level
of the state government and "inadequacies" in the existing
mechanism for analysing alerts about possible strikes.
The report had cited instances of non-adherence to the
Standard Operating Practice (SOP) during the terror siege.
